Like our boy Will, this one took a while to come out and just like him, I’m valid.

So Will’s turn. I don’t what to talk as much about his clothes per say (yet), but more what he does with them. So I’m covering his person suit. Part 4 is going to melt better with the series and be closer to it’s usual comedic tone.

This one isn’t funny like the other ones because I made it to specifically stab people in the chest. I also got a brain so I put this one under a read more so the people who follow us won’t want to murder us.

Apéritif’s costuming gave us everything we need to know about Hannibal and it gave us everything we need to know about Will and I use a few episodes of season 3 to really twist the knife about it.

This is my second post about Will’s clothes here’s the first one [ here ].

You can find my other Hannibal clothing posts (and cool ones not written by me) by looking in this tag [ here ].

Despite knowing a lot about the logistics of formal menswear, Will Graham’s style is one I find a lot easier to get into. He’s not like Hannibal where he follows specific fashion rules and has tons of costume changes and flair. Some of us are closeted and need to tone it down. Some of us are autistic and enjoy wearing things within our comfort zone. By us, I mean Will Graham and maybe me.

He wears a lot of easily found brands like Van Huesen, J. Crew, and Gap. Very typical for an American who needs semi-formal or formal work clothes. Dad brands. FBI salary is nice, Will has money, he just thinks spending more than $60 on a button up makes you an idiot. He’s correct in case you were wondering. He canonically reads Marx, what do you expect.

He isn’t a sloppy dresser at anytime in the show. Any time you look at him and don’t like what he’s wearing, it’s probably because he’s not rolling up his sleeves. It makes a difference. That difference is the whole “season two glow up.”

Season 2 Will’s glow-up was entirely reliant on him figuring out how to style his hair and buying 1 (one) nice sweater, 1 (one) new sportcoat, and and a 1 (one) very good overcoat, which by the way is a Hugo Boss wool blend overcoat that ran him $700.

Will’s new sweater he got in S2 is a Club Monaco 100% wool sweater that was probably around $200. He wears this sweater when he told Hannibal that it was a dick move to not let him murder the guy who voices Mickey Mouse (look it up). He also wears this when he tells Hannibal is was dick move to murder their surrogate daughter.

The one he wears when he makes Clark Ingram shit his pants and cry is a J Crew Wallance & Barnes. He already had this season one and he wears it when he tries to shoot Hannibal. This has nothing to do with fashion but he’s also teacupping the gun in both scenes which is probably why he’s such a bad shot. Maybe they wouldn’t be “attempted” murders if you actually took a gun safety class, Will.

The sweater he wears under his coat in Su-zakana is the same beige H&M sweater he wears in S1E5 Coquilles. It’s a nice sweater. The man clearly owns a washing machine unlike Hannibal who probably just gets rid of his clothes once he wears then once. (Wash your sweaters on a cold setting and let them air dry and they will stay softer longer and won’t shrink as bad).

The blazer is funny because he never wears the one from season one and instead wears a new herringbone John Varvatos one. Which he wears four different times, all paired with a denim shirt. He knows what he looks good in.

Will loves what he wears. His style is very locked down and what he’s wearing is never going to shock anyone’s pants off. That green military jacket of his? That you saw what I wrote and said ‘Didn’t he wear that in that in the pilot? No actually Will Graham has two green jackets that look almost exactly the same. The first one is a lighter field jacket for fall, after episode 7, he starts exclusively wearing his winter American Eagle jacket.

You know what’s funnier than having two green jackets that you thought were one green jacket? Having four blue jackets that look like almost the same.

I don’t know what this one is really about other than I’m sick of people saying Will can’t dress or doesn’t have nice clothes. I mean if anything it’s pretty basic and you can literally put together his wardrobe by compiling pics i found from searching “man stock photos.”

He just dresses exactly how you’d expect an 30/40 something professor to dress. He dresses like a dad or like a depressed high school biology teacher.
