Happy Father's Day to Alexander Skarsgård, specifically: A look back at the daddy-coded press tour fits

Father’s Day is nearly upon us and Vogue Scandinavia would like to take the opportunity to honour one daddy in particular: Alexander Skarsgård. Not only is Skarsgård a father in the traditional sense (he shares a child with Tuva Novotny), he’s also a daddy to us all, as proven by the press tour looks for Pillion.

In the film, which premiered at Cannes and screens at the Stockholm Film Festival next week, Skarsgård plays Ray, the charismatic leader of a biker gang who becomes the leather-clad dom in a relationship with the timid Colin (Harry Melling). Following in the tennis ball-toting footsteps of Zendaya (and with the help of stylist Harry Lambert), Skarsgård has kept the Pillion press tour on theme, revelling in leather, bicep-exposing tailoring and even a shirt printed with sex toys.

So, without further ado, we revisit all of Skarsgård’s Pillion press tour looks as a salute to Scandinavia’s ultimate daddy.

The thigh-high Saint Laurent boots that rocked our collective consciousness.

Skarsgård embraces a more delicate aesthetic, wearing Bianca Saunders' sequinned trousers to support his fellow Swedes at the premiere of Eagles of the Republic.

The most overt reference to Pillion's BDSM themes was the Loewe leather pants and vintage Jerks Store boot-licker t-shirt he wore to the film's photocall.

Skarsgård's Magliano shirt, artfully printed with a bevvy of adult toys, was an alternate take on his kink-forward Pillion looks.

Last but certainly not least, Skarsgård set the internet ablaze with this business in the front, party in the back look by Ludovic de Saint Sernin. Yes Daddy, indeed.
