'The Power of the Dog' supporting actor Oscar nominee, styled by Just Jared's Jared Eng, has become a breakout fashion star on awards season red carpets.

This paradoxical image-making is thanks, in part, to his stylist, Jared Eng, whose experience as the founder of the celebrity news site Just Jared brings the required eye for drama to Smit-McPhee’s more subdued instincts.. “I think that a lot of guys in Hollywood tend to just play it super safe. They don’t play with color, they don’t play with shapes, they don’t see outside the norm. There are so many opportunities for menswear to expand and to grow.

A lot of the looks I’ve done, we’ve put a great deal of thought behind them. Jared and I go through a lot of healthy debates about how daring we want to be. He’s usually the one trying to push the bar, and I’m always kind of making it a bit more contemporary and grounded and I think more acceptable for my field of work. You don’t want to just go out the gate swinging, especially as an actor being at events with your peers.

We met years and years ago. But I would say we really started to collaborate more recently, within the past three years. I was going to a Comic-Con event [in 2019 to promote] and he casually asked me what I was wearing. I hadn’t really thought about it, I was just going to show up and be present with the press. I hadn’t worked with a stylist for a while, and he told me he was trying to take on a new endeavor moving into fashion, as he was passionate about it. And so I respected that.

Smit-McPhee is a fan of electric guitars by Ibanez, whose latest models include the S561 in pink gold metallic matte .You also are a musician and have posted music to YouTube and SoundCloud. What appeals to you about making music?
