Agent 47 is many things, but mainly a murderer. However, the eponymous hitman is also living a sartorial dream: everything looks amazing on him, all the time. Hereâs a breakdown of some of his best disguises from the first season of 2016âs Hitman

This is about as good an approximation of what a hipster would wear Iâve ever seen. Somehow, instead of looking tacky, 47 looks great. And it should look tacky. This is a sleeveless floral shirt with multiple bracelets and Pharrellâs hat. Itâs a whole lot of look. Maybe itâs Agent 47âs steely gaze, maybe itâs his perfect cheekbones, or maybe itâs the knowledge that he can kill a man with a can of soup, but somehow, on him, it all pulls together.

47 looks downright sexy in this. Round glasses are an old fashioned, academic look, which fits, as Agent 47 has taken this outfit from his targetâs therapist. The blazer with a turtleneck is a classic, an almost clichĂ©d signifier of intellectualism, but whatâs nice about this outfit is how it layers textures and colors. Itâs a tweed jacket with a thicker knit, which gives the somewhat formless outfit a clearer shape, emphasizing his chest and shoulders. I also like that the browns donât matchâitâs a risky move, but it gives him more even definition between his legs and torso.

I want to hate this mostly because it looks like a parody of high fashion designed by someone who doesnât care or know much about it⊠but that coat is alright. Itâs overdesigned, but it succeeds in what it sets out to do, which is be edgy. Sure, it doesnât need to be knee length and also asymmetrical, but I do like its color, a midnight blue, and the shiny leather detailing. In motion, it looks pretty impressive.
Can we fire this make up artist though? Kinda looks like Agent 47 fell asleep in last nightâs face.
What are your favorite looks from Hitman? Seriously, does that guy look bad in anything? He fills out a waiterâs uniform like Iâve never seen. Sound off in the comments.
