Jimmy Kimmel Live! Weekly Highlights, 31 August–3 September 2026
Another week, another fantastic selection of celebrity style on Jimmy Kimmel Live! As we move towards the start of autumn, this week's highlights brought together three very different approaches to dressing for the spotlight — from Hollywood leading men Dave Franco and Anthony Anderson to the effortlessly glamorous Hannah Waddingham.
Let's take a closer look at this week's standout looks.
Dave Franco
First up is Dave Franco, who appeared on the show alongside guest host Anthony Anderson.
The actor was on the programme promoting his new comedy Idiots, and his appearance demonstrated exactly why understated Hollywood menswear continues to have such staying power.
Dave opted for a relaxed yet polished look, combining contemporary menswear proportions with an effortless, off-duty feel. Rather than going for an overly formal red-carpet approach, the outfit relied on clean lines, considered proportions and simplicity.
It's a great example of the modern approach to menswear: less formality, but certainly no less attention to detail.
A well-cut jacket, beautifully fitted trousers or a perfectly proportioned shirt can elevate even the simplest combination. The secret is always in the cut.
For us at A Hand Tailored Suit, this is where custom tailoring really comes into its own. When an outfit is made specifically for you, the proportions can be adjusted to create exactly the silhouette you're looking for — whether that's classic, contemporary or somewhere in between.
Dave also chatted about making the Pope chuckle, his experience meeting furries at Comic-Con and his new film Idiots.
Anthony Anderson
Anthony Anderson wasn't simply a guest this week — he stepped into the host's chair.
And, naturally, he brought plenty of personality to the role.
As a familiar face in Hollywood comedy, Anthony understands the importance of presentation, and his appearance offered another example of contemporary celebrity menswear that doesn't need to shout to make an impact.
His approach is confident, sophisticated and distinctly modern. Rather than relying on excessive accessories or complicated styling, the emphasis is on fit, proportion and presence.
That's something we always come back to when discussing bespoke tailoring.
The perfect suit isn't necessarily the loudest suit in the room. It's the one that makes you look — and more importantly, feel — completely at home in it.
Anthony has also appeared as guest host across several episodes during August, making him one of the familiar faces of Kimmel's summer run.
Hannah Waddingham
Our final style highlight of the week is the wonderful Hannah Waddingham.
The Ted Lasso star brought her trademark glamour and elegance to Jimmy Kimmel Live! during her appearance, creating one of the week's standout celebrity fashion moments.
Hannah has become something of a modern style icon, regularly embracing sophisticated silhouettes while still allowing her personality to shine through.
Her appearance demonstrated the power of strong proportions and confident styling. Whether it's an elegant tailored silhouette, a beautifully structured dress or a statement evening look, Hannah understands that great fashion begins with the relationship between the garment and the person wearing it.
And that's something that translates directly into tailoring.
The finest bespoke clothing shouldn't overpower the wearer. It should enhance them.
From the shoulders and sleeve length to the waist suppression, trouser break and jacket length, every measurement contributes to the final silhouette. When those details are right, the result looks effortless.
Hannah's appearance also gave viewers an update on the return of Ted Lasso, as well as stories involving Octavia Spencer and the legendary Carol Burnett.
