Deacon Phillippe is turning heads in a new fashion shoot, where his relaxed streetwear style is paired with a striking resemblance to his famous father, Ryan Phillippe. The 22-year-old appeared in a series of photos for ERL Clothing. Like Naomi Watts and her son Sasha, he showed how casual fashion can make a stylish statement. He modeled washed purple pieces while showing off a distinctly casual look.
Deacon Phillippe Shows Off Laid-Back Streetwear
According to Hello!, the actor and musician showcased several pieces from ERL Clothing in the new photos. The collection has a distinctly relaxed streetwear feel. Its pieces feature a washed lavender-purple color throughout.
One look features a sleeveless tank with a distressed graphic across the chest. The design includes mountain and wave imagery with “California” lettering. The loose-fitting top is paired with matching purple bottoms.
Another photo shows 22-year-old Deacon Phillippe shirtless beside a wooden dresser. He wears wide-leg, heavily faded lavender cargo pants. A purple hoodie is draped nearby.
The shoot also includes a close-up of the zip-up hoodie. The oversized piece carries the same California-inspired graphic. In another image, the actor pulls the hoodie onto his shoulders while wearing the cargo pants.
The styling stays simple throughout the carousel. There are no elaborate accessories or formal pieces. Instead, the focus is on oversized shapes, faded colors and the casual West Coast-inspired aesthetic.
Deacon Phillippe Looks Strikingly Like His Dad
As reported by Hello!, the fashion shoot also gave fans another reason to look twice. Deacon Phillippe is the son of former Hollywood power couple Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe. The young star’s resemblance to his father was especially noticeable in the new images.
The actor wears his blond hair pushed back from his face. His expression and overall appearance also drew comparisons to the “Cruel Intentions” star.
Fans quickly pointed out the family resemblance in the comments. One person wrote, “He’s got both his parents’ elite genes.”
Ryan Phillippe Has Addressed Their Resemblance
Deacon Phillippe’s famous father has previously spoken about the comparisons. Hello! reported on earlier comments to E! News where he acknowledged that there is a “father-son resemblance.” In an appearance on “The Late Late Show,” the actor discussed how young he can appear alongside his children.
He said people sometimes mistook him for his daughter’s brother, and explained that this was particularly embarrassing for his daughter, Ava Phillippe. He described her reaction as being “absolutely repulsed” by the comparisons.
Deacon Phillippe Is Following His Parents Into Entertainment
The fashion shoot comes as Deacon continues developing his own career in entertainment. He has already appeared in several acting projects. His credits include “Never Have I Ever” and “4 Kids Walk Into a Bank.”
He also shared the screen with his father in “Motorheads.” According to Hello!, Deacon played Ryan’s character’s brother in flashback scenes. The role gave the father and son an opportunity to spend more time together during production.
Deacon has also reached an important personal milestone. He graduated from NYU in May, with both of his parents coming together to support him.
Now, the latest fashion photos offer another glimpse at the 22-year-old’s growing public profile. Deacon Phillippe’s relaxed purple streetwear gives the shoot its visual identity. His resemblance to Ryan gives fans another reason to take notice, much like rare family outings such as Mila Kunis with her 11-year-old daughter Wyatt.
