Groom-to-be Travis Kelce modeled a head-turning custom suit ahead of the Kansas City Chiefs season opener, just weeks after popping the question to Taylor Swift.
Before stepping onto the field for the first game of his 13th season with the NFL Friday, the tight end, 35, was seen arriving in style at Arena Corinthians in São Paulo, Brazil, in a black designer KidSuper blazer with contrast stitching and an eccentric design.
He wore matching black embroidered slacks and loafers, accessorizing with opaque shades ahead of kickoff. The NFL star carried a large duffel bag and wore AirPods as he made his way to the game, where the Chiefs are facing off against the Los Angeles Chargers.
His fiancée Taylor Swift was not in attendance — sources told TMZ on Friday that none of the Kansas City Chiefs WAGs made the nearly 13-hour flight to cheer on their men.
Fans on Instagram were impressed with the look. “Whoa! Thats stylish AF,” one person wrote on a fan account’s photo of Kelce’s look, while another gushed, “This man never looks bad!”
“Looking forward to seeing his fashion choices each week” a third remarked, with a fourth noting, “Year 13 in his Fiancée era 🔥 🔥❤️”
The football star’s fierce sense of style reportedly benefitted from the guidance of his bride-to-be, 35, to whom he became engaged in August after two years of dating.
“He dresses to impress her, and her influence is undeniable,” a source told the Daily Mail in December.
“He strives to match her level of fashion perfection and is not afraid to let her pick out an outfit for him to wear on a night out on the town.”
While their inherent fashion preferences differed, the insider said they “find a balance” in their fashion ensembles.
“Travis knows that he doesn’t always nail it when he dresses on his own and that she may not vibe with it, so he is always down to let her take the lead on their outfits,” the source told the outlet.
“Travis is a very macho bro, but he enjoys being a muse for her. Because of her, he has gotten into fashion because he knows how into it she is.”
Additionally, the source said the NFL star “loves to shop online for clothes with Taylor.”
“Aside from his stylist, it is where he gets most of his clothes,” they divulged. “With an endless budget, their shopping experiences are even more enjoyable.”
Kelce confessed that was indeed the case in a 2023 interview. “Money gave me access to certain designers and just certain fabrics that I absolutely love now,” he told the Wall Street Journal in 2023.
His upscale sense of style also came through in his choice of a romantic old mine brilliant cut diamond engagement ring, which he bestowed on the songstress a couple of weeks before their Aug. 26 announcement.
The elegant sparkler could be worth as much as $1 million, Page Six learned.
An insider told us earlier this week that the couple plans to wed “next summer” in Rhode Island, where the “Cruel Summer” hitmaker owns a palatial estate.
