Harrison Ford ages like a smooth, expensive Merlot. The actor, who turns 78 today, has been Hollywood royalty for decades, much thanks to his roles in the successful Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies. He expertly embodies that ruggedly handsome aesthetic that has always been demanded of an action star, but in real life, Ford is handsomely stylish, but in a more pared-down way. You may have been sleeping on his sartorial excellence, but the man knows how to wear a suit. In honor of his birthday, Vogue dug into the Ford archives to find some of his most quietly elegant looks—and there were plenty to choose from.
As a young actor, Ford began his career often playing young ranchers and cops; he even got an Oscar nomination for playing a policeman in Witness, in 1985. His personal style has largely been informed by the effortless, all-American vibe that he often portrays onscreen. Early photos of Ford show the actor has long had a penchant for classic workwear pieces: he has a thing for stonewash denim and impeccably tailored blazers, in particular. In some shots—like one of him wearing shorts, a sweater, and boat shoes—he almost looks preppy. Whereas Hollywood gents often feel styled to perfection, Ford’s wearable ensembles never feel forced. He wears the clothes, the clothes don’t wear him.
Another point of excellence in Ford’s wardrobe? He often masters the tricky shirt-and-tie combination. He picks ties that are not too slim, not too wide, and just patterned enough. It’s something that is so simple, but often executed wrong. He is also a menswear god in the sense that his style has never changed yet somehow always feels appropriate. That takes talent. Hell, even some of Balenciaga’s recent runway looks seem to be modeled after his normcore wardrobe. So, it’s officially time to say it loud for those in the back: Ford is a style icon, and always has been.
Below, some of Ford’s best style moments.
