13 GQ Editors Share the Best Outfits They Wore in 2025

How do you measure a year in the life? As it turns out: in daylights, in sunsets, and in selfies. As we look back upon 2025 , we asked the well-heeled staffers of GQ to scroll through their camera rolls and share their best (or even just most memorable) outfits of the year. Through all the destination weddings, RTO mandates, weeknight dinners, and Met Gala afterparties, we all, as they say, really put that shit on. Scroll on to see our best outfits-and, in turn, some version of our best selves-from 2025. 2025 was my most journo-boy year yet. I did a lot of party reporting-including a piece that required me to go out for seven days straight-which meant I needed to be strategic about my outfits. I wanted them to be easy to move in and approachable, so I could chase partygoers around without scaring them off, but I also wanted these outfits to be playful, so I could feel confident when talking to complete strangers about their private thoughts and gatekept warehouse raves when they’d rather have spent their molly high making out with someone in a hammock.

I probably wore this for my second week at GQ . This whole fit was being held down by this beautiful vintage double-breasted Armani jacket that I got from Sorbara’s in Brooklyn. I topped it off with a Wythe Oxford cloth button-down, a J.Crew tie, and some Resolute denim, which I got in Japan last year. It’s got a bit of brown, some blues, and black with the shoes and the sweater, and then I topped it off with the navy fleece beanie from Adsum. I’m also wearing my dad’s signet ring, which he bought back in the ’90s. I don’t know why, but the fleece beanie is what pulls this whole thing together for me. It’s weird, it’s kind of silly, but it also reminds me of something JFK Jr. would throw on, so I’m not mad at it. - Jordan Bowman, commerce editor Yes, my beloved Toronto Blue Jays lost a World Series for the ages in truly devastating fashion. No, I’ll probably never get over it. But the unbridled joy I felt throughout their once-in-a-lifetime run-and especially on this particular day, when I first received...
