Brad Pitt turned heads by ditching the conventional suit and tie for a gender-neutral look while appearing at the premiere of his new action film, Bullet Train.

His explanation for his manner of dress, so to speak, at Berlin’s Zoo Palast theater on Tuesday was pure Brad.


With the intense summer heat wave battering across Europe and other parts of the world, the 58-year-old Academy Award winner opted for coolness in a brown linen outfit comprised of a knee-length kilt, matching jacket, and a salmon shirt left open just below the neckline to reveal a pair of low-hanging pendants.

Intrigued by Pitt's decision to reveal his tattooed man legs–extensions of which were cut off by the tops of his boots–a reporter on the scene had one question for the actor.

"What is the reason for you to choose a kilt tonight?" asked the reporter, to which Pitt said without hesitation:

"The Breeze."

Social media users had plenty to say about the Once Upon a Time in…Hollywood star going for the Scottish attire.






Cynics begged to differ about all the kilt hubbub.




Regardless of the bitterness targeting his fashion statement, a strong majority approved.





Pitt addressed his fashion sense before in a 2021 interview with Esquire in which he called his preferred style the “no-style style.”

“I like monochrome, without it being a uniform,” he told his interviewer Jonathan Evans.

“I like simplicity. I like the details in the stitching, the way it feels. If anything, that’s the only divining rod I have.”

Regarding his personal look ruled by his lifestyle dictating the aesthetic, he said, “It’s led by comfort.”

“I like the feel of a Lecia camera or the way a watch feels. I don’t want to look ostentatious, but if you come close, you notice."
"I like how the lining feels. It’s those details that are important to me. It’s too exhausting to follow trends."
"And I despise billboards; I just don’t want to be billboard.”

Bullet Train is about a retired assassin who gets called back into action to retrieve a suitcase from onboard Japan's titular Shinkansen train, only to find out other assassins have been tasked for the same covert mission.

The action comedy also stars Sandra Bullock, Bad Bunny, Joey King, Hiroyuki Sanada, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Logan Lerman, Brian Tyree Henry, Zazie Beetz, and Michael Shannon.
