94th Annual Academy Awards: 5 Of Will Smith's Flyest Fashion Moments

We can get jiggy with these throwback outfits.

With 1 million copies of his new memoir Will sold, a new hit show on Peacock (Bel-Air) and a 2022 Oscar nomination under his belt for his role in King Richard, the year officially belongs to Hollywood actor, film producer and new author Will Smith.

We'll be rooting for Smith (and everyone Black) at the 94th Academy Awards, where he's up for "Best Actor" along with Denzel Washington, who earned a nod for his role in The Tragedy of McBeth.

We're anxious to see who nabs the gold trophy on Sunday, March 27, and just as excited to see Black Excellence shut down the red carpet.

Join us in counting down to the 94th Academy Awards with these throwback looks from the Fresh Prince. Here's five of Smith's flyest fashion moments.
