Brad Pitt On Getting Older, Crankier And Seeking For Comfort: I Despise Billboards

The finely aged man side of Brad Pitt is unveiling.

Brad Pitt is one of those Hollywood stars who is aging gracefully, and while the 12 Monkeys star doesn’t consider himself a “style guy,” his demeanor and fashion sense say volumes.

Brad can look amazing in just about anything, whether he’s wearing traditional black suits on red carpets or casual attire, but he’s most at ease when he’s dressed simply and comfortably.

Brad Pitt states in an interview with Esquire magazine, “If I have a style, it’s no style.” He also says, “I enjoy monotone, without it becoming a uniform.” I prefer to keep things simple. I appreciate the stitching details and how it feels. That is, after all, the only divining rod I have.”

“The feel of a Leica camera or a watch appeals to me. I don’t want to appear flashy, but you’ll notice if you look closely. The lining has a nice feel to it. Those are the nuances that matter to me. It’s very much tiring to match up with the latest fashion. And I loathe billboards; I simply do not wish to be one.”

“As you get older, you get crankier, and comfort becomes more important,” Brad Pitt adds as he indulges in more of the same. “That, I believe, is all there is to it.”

Brad Pitt appears to know a thing or two about fashion; naming him one of Hollywood’s best-dressed men appears to be accurate. Aside from fashion, the Fight Club star has a passion for coffee, and he just became the brand ambassador for De’Longhi, an Italian premium coffee, and espresso machine company.

“I am a serious, professional, committed coffee drinker,” Brad Pitt says. I’m usually a three-cappuccino drinker in the morning and depending on the work, I might switch to espresso in the afternoon.”

The superstar goes on to explain why he chose De’Longhi as his collaborator. “I try to do as little of these things as possible. However, taking a trip with De’Longhi made sense for me. You don’t have to force your product down people’s throats if you believe in it. You’re capable of doing it nicely.”
