Joe Keery just proved that Steve Harrington will never go out of style.

The Stranger Things star recently went viral after fans spotted him wearing an outfit that looked straight out of Hawkins, Indiana, at the wedding of friends Matt Williams and Veronica Capaldi.

A photo from the event began circulating on social media, showing Keery in a vintage-style vest layered over a crisp shirt, a look instantly recognized by fans as a nod to his on-screen character.

It didn’t take long for Stranger Things fans to flood X (formerly Twitter) with comments pointing out the uncanny resemblance.

“Steve Harrington in 2025 is thriving,” one user joked, while another quipped, “He didn’t just play Steve, he became Steve.”

Keery, who has embraced a more eclectic fashion sense in recent years, has yet to comment on the viral moment, but fans are convinced the actor’s retro ensemble was no coincidence.

The 32-year-old is set to reprise his role as the charming babysitter-turned-hero in Stranger Things 5, the highly anticipated final season of Netflix’s hit sci-fi horror series.

Whether intentional or not, Keery’s throwback look reminded fans why Steve Harrington remains one of the show’s most beloved characters.
