Brad Pitt has made headlines last month when he wore a skirt rather than a more traditional pair of pants at the Berlin premiere of his new movie, Bullet Train.

Pitt stars in the film along with co-stars Sandra Bullock, Joey King, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

It follows five assassins who find themselves on a fast-moving bullet train from Tokyo to Morioka - only to learn that their assignments are not quite what they expected them to be.

The 58-year-old actor rocked up at the red carpet in his unique ensemble, which was made up of a brown knee-length skirt and a jacket to match.

The Fight Club star donned a pink shirt underneath the brown two-piece and adorned the look with a pair of chains, shades, and dark-colored combat boots.

The look also revealed some of the striking ink work on his legs, which included a human skull and the face of a rhinoceros.

In any case, it turns out that Pitt has a good explanation as to why he wore the typically feminine clothing item.

Speaking to Variety's Marc Malkin in an interview at the film's Los Angeles premiere on Monday, Pitt explained that he donned the skirt because: "I don't know! We're all going to die, so let's mess it up."

This comes weeks after a reporter for The Associated Press asked him the same question, to which he responded: "The breeze. The breeze."

And as reported by British Vogue, back in 2004, when he was promoting his movie Troy, Pitt had said that he was anticipating that more and more men would add skirts to their wardrobe.

"Men will be wearing skirts by next summer," he said at the time, according to the outlet. "That's my prediction and proclamation. The film answers to both genders. We were going for realism and Greeks wore skirts all the time then."

Also, in an interview with Esquire last year, the dad of six said that getting "older" and "crankier" had changed the way he feels about the kind of attire he dresses in.
