From Brad Pitt to Lil Nas X, More Men Are Turning to Skirts
(CNN) — When Brad Pitt arrived at the premiere for new movie Bullet Train last month, his laid-back linen outfit made headlines everywhere — or part of it did, at least.
The actor, who is known for hypermasculine roles in films such as Fight Club and Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood, completed his blush pink-and-brown ensemble with an eye-catching twist: a skirt."I don't know!" Pitt later told Variety magazine of the inspiration behind his wardrobe choice. "We're all going to die, so let's mess it up."Pitt joined a growing roster of stars recently pictured wearing gender-neutral skirts, from Oscar Isaac's below-the-knee pleated number at the Moon Knight premiere to Lil Nas X's metallic pink miniskirt.
Actor Billy Porter, Schitt's Creek star Dan Levy, basketball player Russell Westbrook and rapper A$AP Rocky have also embraced the trend.Outside Hollywood, the phenomenon has been gaining traction for years, according to Carl R.
