Greetings, Fashionably Faithful!
On season 3 episode 6 of The Traitors, the main challenge saw host Alan Cumming sport a mixture of sequins and spikes. According to Cumming's stylist, Sam Spector, the look was a "dramatic" modification to suit Traitors warfare.
"On this week's episode of The Traitors, we start with Alan in a beautifully tailored suit from Suitsupply (@Suitsupply). We wanted to elevate this look a little bit and bring it into Traitors world by adding this metallic knot cover for the tie," Spector shares as part of Out's What Alan Wore series.
"It has the spikes on it that sort of a reminiscent of like scary armor that's in battle, so it works perfectly with Traitors to create a more dramatic moment later in the episode we changed the sleeves from the suit to this multi-colored sequin sleeve."

With the help of Spector, Cumming has become a style icon for his over-the-top looks on the hit Peacock reality competition. (The prior episode featured a memorable mossy ensemble.) Spector also styled Cumming in his new Out cover story.
“I’ve unleashed the beast in [Spector], and I really love that,” said Cumming in the interview. “The outfits are so nuts and have become such a part of the fabric of the show.”
“People are so excited and interested in what I wear,” he marvels. “So now, every time we’re like, Oh, my God, what are we going to do now? What are we going to do next?”
