In the limelight, Brad Pitt metamorphoses for Interview magazine’s October/November 2012 issue, lensed by Steven Klein. Dressed in a wardrobe curated by stylist Ludivine Poiblanc, Pitt is a chameleon of personas akin to his versatile roles on the silver screen.

One can’t overlook the diversity in his hairstyles, either. The man who shifted from Achilles’ warrior mane to Tyler Durden’s chaotic spikes in cinema now toggles between slicked-back sophistication and uninhibited dreads. A pompadour even appears, each hairstyle telling a story as nuanced as the characters he’s embodied.

The clothing follows suit—a sequined jacket glitters in one frame while deconstructed knitwear unravels in another. The repertoire is an ode to eclecticism, and one can’t help but reflect on Pitt’s cinematic journey through varied roles.

The wardrobe is a nuanced anthology of a career that has given us memorable characters like the impassive grim reaper in Meet Joe Black or the restless traveler in A River Runs Through It.

Each sartorial choice becomes a tactile memento, speaking to a chapter in a storied career that has kept cinema seats warm since the ’90s. To witness Pitt in this spread is to take a mini-retrospective of a life portrayed in frames.

It’s as if each click of Klein’s camera shutter captures not just a man in clothes but a symphony of lives lived under the lights.
