Brad Pitt is the ultimate Hollywood hunk. Plenty of
heartthrobs have come and gone, but Pitt remains a constant; as the
years have progressed, his shining star status has never dimmed. Now
that it’s awards season, Pitt—who is in the running for his role in
Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time In Hollywood—will be taking the red carpets of La La Land by storm all month long. We saw our first glimpse of the actor earlier this week at the Golden Globes, where he secured a Best Supporting Actor award, as well as a mention as one of Vogue’s best-dressed
men. And it seems he’s continuing this strong sense of style off the
red carpet, too: just take the two fits he just rocked in New York City
yesterday. It looks like 2020 is already shaping up to be the year of
Pitt’s fashion level-up.
Pitt’s fashion record in the past has seen him embrace more of a
sleazy-chic vibe, falling in line with the characters he typically tends
to play (revisit his Fight Club getups,
for instance). Throughout the 2000s, the star played into some of the
biggest trends of the moment: think leather trenches, pageboy caps,
graphic tees, clear sunglasses. He’s always had his own vibe going on—a
sort of scrubby cool dude look—while also knowing how to clean up on the
red carpet when needed. But this week’s outfits made it clear that
Pitt’s upping his game both off and on the streets: it seems that Brad
is entering a smarter and more mature style chapter.
His new vibe was first spotted upon arrival in Manhattan yesterday, as
he greeted swarms of fans in a fresh-off-the-plane look that was all
about artful layering. He paired a neon green sweater with distressed
jeans, piling a maroon wool coat and hunter green scarf overtop. Cool
accessories such as suede boots, a satchel, suede brimmed hat, and black
sunglasses played up his movie star identity. When night fell, the
actor then dressed up for dinner: he went for a slick all-black evening
outfit, consisting of a tailored suit worn over a henley (an easier,
more modern alternative to the button-up). Meanwhile, a double-breasted
coat, scuff-free oxfords, and slicked-back hair played up the dapper
feel. The takeaway? It seems even a superstar like Pitt isn’t immune to
the “new year, new me” spirit.
