Chace Crawford hates to shave. That’s why the “Gossip Girl” actor sported some of his signature sexy scruff at the John Varvatos show.
To go along with put-together yet not-trying-too-hard facial hair, Crawford was spiffed out in a dark jacket and gray tee.
“I like to look sharp when it’s called for and casual when it’s called for,” he said.
His juxtaposition of sharp and casual jived perfectly with the rock ‘n’ roll vibe – and music – at the Varvatos show. The designer’s always-amazing soundtrack certainly wasn’t lacking this season, with tunes from David Bowie and The Who and a fabulously amped up version of “House of the Rising Sun.”
“I like a show any time when it’s not just models walking down the runway,” said Damien Fahey, there with girlfriend Grasie Mercedes. MTV taught you well, Damien.
Besides the models and the music, there was another force heating up the scene: McSteamy (or, Eric Dane, if you prefer). Yes, the “Grey’s Anatomy” actor made his scheduled appearance, looking much skinnier – though still extremely Mc-nickname-worthy – in person.
