Fitzpatrick Defends Top Hat Choice at Swift-Kelce Wedding
18 Sep
Summary
- Ryan Fitzpatrick wore a top hat and green tie to match his wife's dress.
- Tom Hanks told Fitzpatrick wearing a top hat was a 'huge faux pas'.
- The invitation for the event stated top hats were acceptable attire.
Former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is standing by his distinctive fashion statement at the July 3 wedding of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Fitzpatrick wore a top hat paired with a green tie, chosen to match his wife Liza's emerald dress. He humorously addressed the criticism, including comparisons to a leprechaun, explaining that a traditional bow tie would be obscured by his beard.
During the star-studded event at Madison Square Garden, Fitzpatrick encountered Tom Hanks, who reportedly called his top hat choice a "huge faux pas" and stated it was reserved for the groom. Fitzpatrick, however, maintains he followed the invitation's guidance, which he states permitted top hats. Travis Kelce himself later confirmed he wore a white top hat, sporting custom Christian Dior Haute Couture alongside Swift.
