At Thursday’s inaugural UK Rolling Stone Awards, held at Camden Roundhouse in London, English singer Louis Tomlinson proudly displayed his flare for fashion.

The former One Direction frontman made the statement of a real rockstar by wearing an all-black attire with a crochet bomber jacket that revealed his muscly and tattooed torso that was otherwise disguised beneath a plain vest.

Only the word “what” could be read from what was scrawled on his upper breast. “One of these boys obviously needed to have What Makes You Beautiful tattooed on his body,” joked one critic.

Louis wore them with similar black jeans and his distinctive chestnut Mop Top Fringe haircut, which looked just as good with his well-kept beard.

The Back to You singer completed his expensive red carpet appearance with a confident smile, striking a pose in a pair of contemporary trainers with his hands put into the pockets of his beautiful jacket.

The event marked the debut of the Rolling Stone UK awards, which are intended to recognize great achievements in music. The induction of 13 champions into its esteemed Hall of Fame will be a highlight.
