SNL’s Heartthrob Domingo Gets “Arrested” in Style at Sabrina Carpenter’s Concert: A Fashion-Forward Affair
In a deliciously theatrical moment that had the fashion set buzzing, SNL’s breakout star Marcello Hernández brought his irresistible character Domingo to Sabrina Carpenter’s Inglewood show, serving nothing but pure heat in a statement blue jacket that had us all reaching for our shopping carts. The viral sensation, who first captured our hearts in October’s SNL episode alongside Ariana Grande (wearing custom Versace, naturally), found himself at the receiving end of Carpenter’s signature concert “arrest” – complete with Instagram-worthy pink fuzzy handcuffs that we’re certain will spark a TikTok trend any minute now.
Carpenter, who has been delivering look after look on her Short n’ Sweet tour in an array of crystal-embellished mini dresses and platform heels that would make even Carrie Bradshaw envious, has been “arresting” one exceptionally attractive audience member per show. Previous “perpetrators” include fashion darling Millie Bobby Brown, who was “detained” in Atlanta wearing a stunning Miu Miu ensemble that had us all taking notes.
The chemistry between Carpenter and Hernández’s Domingo character was electric, with their playful banter referencing her hit “Bed Chem” sending the crowd (and our social media feeds) into an absolute frenzy. Domingo’s blue jacket moment – a masterclass in casual luxe – perfectly complemented Carpenter’s stage ensemble, creating what can only be described as a fashion perfect storm.
This weekend proved particularly momentous for the Domingo phenomenon, as Hernández also brought the character back to SNL for a baby shower sketch alongside host Charli XCX (who, might we add, was serving in head-to-toe Alexander McQueen). The sketch, which has already amassed nearly 2 million views, featured a musical homage to Chappell Roan’s “HOT TO GO!” and had us all wondering: has Domingo become fashion’s newest unexpected style icon?
The original “Bridesmaid Speech” sketch, which now boasts over 11 million views, not only launched a thousand memes but also sparked a fascinating conversation about wedding party fashion and the eternal appeal of the bad boy in a good suit. Domingo’s latest appearance only cements his status as pop culture’s most fashionable fictional lothario.
