Shawn Mendes, 22, is a chart-topping, award-winning artist who has headlined advertisements for Calvin Klein and Armani, as well as a regular on GQ’s red carpet radar, one of our favorite street style sites, and a continuous source of relationship goals with his ex-girlfriend Camila Cabello.

Mendes’ tenacious sense of personal style has witnessed him become a frequent presence on our weekly best-dressed list, whether he’s dressed up or in casual performance gear. He understands what looks well on him, from vividly printed shirts undone to his navel to completely tailored tailoring.

Here, we take a gaze around some of our favorite Shawn Mendes looks from the past, including rare behind-the-scenes images from his breakthrough year.

1. Shawn Mendes wore this forest green suit at the VMAs.

It appeared to be very (very) appealing. I’m not sure if the black section of the suit is linked to the suit because I’m not familiar with fashion, but it looks distinctive and excellent.

2. This silky blue button-down is Shawn’s second outfit.

He wore black slacks and Chelsea boots on the bottom. We’re not tailors, but we think the pants are well-fitting!

3. Shawn’s next performance consisted of removing a layer (clever) and revealing his arms.

He was also dressed in suspenders. His muscles swelled. Suspenders and bulging muscles, we exclaimed!

4. Shawn kept his arms out for his final glance.

His shirt was adorned with small braids. He had a deep V. Everything was fine.
