It all started at the Cannes Film Festival.
Brad Pitt, dressed in Brioni for the debut of “Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood,” was back on the red carpet once again, and had brought his signature style with him. The film has been a comeback for Pitt, not only in his career but in fashion as well: The actor was named the face of Brioni in mid-January. It’s the perfect marriage: one of the biggest style icons of this era and one of the originators of red-carpet dressing for men in Hollywood.
“We created a tuxedo for Mr. Pitt for the 2019 Cannes Film Festival and it was immediately a perfect match,” says Brioni’s Norbert Stumpfl. “Brad loves tailoring and the new direction the brand has taken. He epitomizes effortless elegance by wearing the finest clothes without caring too much.”
“I’ve always admired Brioni’s elegant and timeless designs,” says Pitt in return. “The brand embodies creativity, quality and excellence.”
Of course, Pitt made his first fashion impact much earlier, specifically with “Thelma & Louise” in 1991. With a simple look of fitted jeans, no shirt, and a white cowboy hat, he instantly became a sex symbol and his celebration of Seventies cowboy immediately positioned him
