Brad Pitt Is Working With Timothée Chalamet’s Stylist
The global press tour for the high-octane racing flick F1, which stars Brad Pitt and Damson Idris, with co-producer Lewis Hamilton, landed in New York City over the weekend. Ahead of the film’s Monday premiere, Pitt hit the town with his girlfriend, the jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, for a double date with Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid at the trendy Cote Korean Steakhouse in Manhattan.
Pitt, 61, turned heads in his slinky ensemble, which included a silky lilac-toned Taverniti shirt, square-toed loafers, and loose black pajama pants printed with a trompe-l’œil graphic to look like a pair of whiskered jeans, by the Italian label Magliano. The outfit was breezy, a little insouciant, and shrewdly conspicuous.
This latent post-swag energy, as it turns out, was no coincidence. The look was styled by Taylor McNeill, who recently shepherded Timothée Chalamet through his gonzo, fashion-centric press tour for the Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown. This year, McNeill also dressed Kendrick Lamar in flared Celine denim for his Super Bowl halftime show, and Lorde in ripped men’s jeans for her “Man of the Year” music video.
On Instagram, McNeill shared a photo of Pitt in his vintage purple shirt and baggy faux-denim pants set to the Prince song “Purple Rain.”
On Saturday night, Pitt and de Ramon headed downtown to the Italian hotspot Carbone in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village. For the evening, McNeill dressed Pitt in a full runway look from American designer Willy Chavarria’s fall 2025 menswear collection: a crushed blue velvet jacket, striped shirt, and oversized starchy blue jeans. Some saw this as a step too far into the swag zone; regarding the outfit, a headline from The Cut posited, “Is Brad Pitt Having a Midlife Crisis?”
Pitt appears to be working with several stylists to coordinate both his formal and off-duty wardrobe during his F1 promotional run. His red-carpet looks from the film’s premiere last week in Mexico City, as well as the tailored trousers and zippered Courrèges sweater he wore on Monday in New York City, were styled by George Cortina, who also dressed Pitt and his F1 cohort for GQ’s summer 2025 cover.
