Do you want to upgrade your style game? Look no further than the Apple TV+ series Hijack, starring Idris Elba. This show has the potential to revolutionize the way we analyze and deconstruct character wardrobes, filling the void left by shows like Succession. You don’t have to be a scion of a media dynasty to appreciate the sartorial brilliance on display.
Hijack offers a unique perspective on air travel during the summer season, when seasoned business travelers are outnumbered by leisure passengers who may not prioritize sartorial dignity. Have you ever wondered why middle-aged men insist on wearing shorts in airports? Hijack tackles this issue and more.
The series follows Sam Nelson (played by Idris Elba), a corporate negotiator on a mission to repair his broken marriage. Little does he know that he will soon find himself facing armed hijackers on a flight from Dubai to London. With confidence and determination, Sam takes on the villains in an epic battle at 35,000 feet.
One of the most impressive aspects of Hijack is the attention to wardrobe details. Costume designer Colleen Morris-Glennon captures the essence of contemporary air travel, from the vibrant colors of economy class to the muted tones of first class. Every character’s outfit tells a story, and Morris-Glennon had to ensure that each look remained consistent throughout the series.
As a viewer, I found myself drawn to the sartorial choices of the characters. From the unassuming Hugo in his unobtrusive suit to the retired Egyptian army officer sporting a cashmere-check sports jacket, there was something for everyone. But the standout piece was undoubtedly Sam Nelson’s layered look, featuring an olive Sunspel polo over a white tee. This casual yet perfectly fitted ensemble perfectly encapsulates the intersection of style and comfort that modern air travel demands.
While Hijack doesn’t shy away from the less glamorous aspects of air travel, it avoids the worst fashion faux pas commonly seen in airports, such as Juicy Couture sweatpants or beachwear. Costume designer Colleen Morris-Glennon has a deep appreciation for the golden age of air travel, even recalling a fashion show on a flight from her childhood. Although we may not see a fashion show on KA29, Hijack reminds us of the allure and elegance that air travel once held.
Don’t miss the season finale of Hijack, airing on Apple TV+ on August 2nd. Upgrade your style game and immerse yourself in the thrilling world of high-stakes fashion at 35,000 feet.
