Brad Pitt Wears Linen Skirt to Bullet Train Premiere: Photos
Brad Pitt Rocks a Linen Skirt on the Red Carpet For "the Breeze"
Brad Pitt is showing some leg. The actor caused quite the stir when he arrived to the "Bullet Train" premiere in Berlin wearing a calf-baring linen skirt. Featuring a raw asymmetrical hemline that was slightly shorter in the front, the brown skirt coordinated with a matching linen jacket and dusty-rose button-down, which he wore untucked, slightly unbuttoned, and visibly not ironed. He styled the look with black Stylmartin boots, brown tortoise-shell sunglasses, gold and silver chain necklaces, and two chunky gold rings. The outfit revealed several never-before-seen leg tattoos, including a rhinoceros head and skull design on Pitt's shin and calf, respectively.
Pitt's movie premiere getup was a weather-appropriate choice, considering the heatwave that's been spreading across Europe this week. When asked by a red carpet reporter why he wore the skirt, he replied with a smirk, "The breeze. The breeze." A top summer fashion consideration indeed.
According to Just Jared, Pitt's skirt set and the rest of his "Bullet Train" press tour outfits hail from New York-based fashion designer Haans Nicholas Mott. The referral-only label is quite secretive, with no website or social media presence to be found online, but all of the clothing is reportedly hand stitched. Other looks he's designed for Pitt to wear across Europe include a cream-coloured suit, a light pink zip-up jacket with a teal zipper, and a navy suit with red stitching.
Although his premiere look came as a surprise to some, this isn't the first time Pitt has shown an affinity for skirts. While promoting his film "Troy" in 2004, he proclaimed, "Men will be wearing skirts by next summer. That's my prediction and proclamation. The film answers to both genders. We were going for realism and Greeks wore skirts all the time then," according to British Vogue. We're thrilled to see his prediction come to fruition, even if it did take a few more summers than anticipated.
Ahead, take an all-angles look at Pitt rocking his hand-stitched skirt set on the red carpet, and see what costars Joey King, Zazie Beetz, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, and more wore to the screening.
