Pharrell's suit turns white when illuminated by flash photographyAnother year, another round of discussion over the wardrobe choices of pop musician Pharrell Williams at the Grammys. In 2014 it was the hat that generated the heat. Where did he get it? Was it inspired by a Canadian Mountie or the logo from the fast-food chain Arby's? Was he hiding something underneath its prodigious aperture? On Sunday,however, the musician returned to what can only be called a style crusade for him - the shorts-suit.

"Pharrell has gone and taken the athleisure movement to new, red carpet-ready heights," writes InStyle's Andrea Cheng.
