Tom Brady’s Met Gala suit is terrible, and we have thoughts

He didn’t even try to dress for the theme (again).

As they do many years, Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen attended the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala. The theme this year is Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination and some people pulled out all the stops.

Rihanna and Katy Perry and Ariana Grande and Greta Gerwig all looked amazing and were committed to the theme. In the male category Migos showed out so it’s possible. But Brady has never been a Met Gala theme-adherer, and he and Gisele have always been, to put it bluntly, super lame at the event. Super lame!

Nothing is different with them this year, except for that Tom’s suit is also terrible. How terrible?

Terrible in many ways. Boring, chintzy, and cheap looking. The SB Nation staff had some thoughts on what his look calls to mind.

  • “You have 72 hours to bring me the Batman. Or I will flood the city in avocado ice cream”
  • He look like a Goldeneye villain
  • This suit screams Greatest Showman.
  • Like an off-strip Vegas musician who does all of his shows in the back of a discount hot tub warehouse called “Jack’s ‘Cuzzis.”
  • Tom Brady is auditioning for the new villain for Threat Level Midnight.
  • “Students, meet Mr. Brady. Your Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for the semester.”
  • As if he’s about to go to the annual Slytherin Scholarship banquet.
  • Like Draco Malfoy’s lacrosse coach.
  • An alt-right James Bond villain.
  • This suit looks like he’s trying to convince a potential investor that his joint avocado ice cream/immortality startup is turning a profit.
  • Tom Brady looks like he’s the guy who taught Ross all about the power of Unagi on Friends.
  • Like an errand boy for a wealthy, gold-obsessed megalomaniac that uses him for popularity reasons but will never actually be able to offer him anything in return because his wealth is a sham. Brady will get to keep the suit as a gesture, only to later realize it is a knockoff made in Bangladesh even though he was told it was a couture design from Paris.

Is that last one too close to home? Oh well, this is the world we live in. On to Cincinnati suggestions from our readers.
