With Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce set to wed on Friday, many are wondering what the Grammy winner will wear to walk down the aisle. Will she go classic, romantic, American, European? It’s all anyone — including us here at Page Six Style — can think about.
However, the Kansas City Chiefs star is a fashionable presence in his own right and deserves some style speculation too.
While grooms are often somewhat limited in their choice of nuptial attire, nothing will be off limits to the future Mr. Swift, and we’re betting Kelce has something quite special up his sleeve.
Ahead of the couple’s over-the-top Madison Square Garden celebration, we went to an expert who worked with the man himself for more than a decade to get his opinion on what the Super Bowl winner might choose.
Tom Marchitelli of Gentleman’s Playbook has created 25 suits for Kelce over the past decade, so he’s well aware of the Ohio native’s boundary-pushing style.
“He was one of the first that really pushed me into [wilder looks]. He’s always had that eye to really push the envelope and wear things that got people talking, because that’s what he loves to do,” Marchitelli told us last year.
And Marchitelli expects Kelce to bring that same flair on his big day.
While multiple fashion brands surely lined up to dress the athlete for his wedding, the expert suspects Louis Vuitton will do the honors.
“In my many trips to Kansas City over the years to work with him and seeing his personal closet, he’s always had an affinity for the brand, both in footwear and apparel,” Marchitelli told us.
Louis Vuitton has been a go-to for both Taylor and Travis lately, with the pair often wearing the French fashion label during their date nights. With Pharrell at the helm of the house’s menswear, there’s a musical star power that’s likely enticing to the couple as well.
The producer/designer has outfitted some of the most fashionable men in Hollywood, including Michael B. Jordan in a mandarin collar suit at the 2026 Oscars and Pusha T in a sparkling double-breasted coat at the 2025 Met Gala. Bradley Cooper — who’s sure to attend the wedding alongside girlfriend Gigi Hadid, one of Swift’s close friends — also happens to be a Louis Vuitton ambassador.
“They only do bespoke tailoring for special clientele and events. You can’t walk into a Louis Vuitton store and get that experience like you can with Tom Ford,” Marchitelli said.
Also high on the tailor’s list of possibilities? Tom Ford, which does “incredible work” — but has become so ubiquitous among A-list men that it’s likely to be “too attainable” for Kelce on his wedding day, he noted.
“Style-wise, I think he will want to give Taylor a fairytale moment for the ceremony and go more on the classic side. I expect to see a slightly fuller-cut double-breasted tux, crisp white shirt and black bow tie, finished off with a diamond lapel pin,” Marchitelli said.
As for the color, Marchitelli expects Kelce to wear classic black for the wedding, although he knows the star “loves” blue.
He also wouldn’t be surprised to see the tight end don a top hat and tails — just like he did for his surprise onstage appearance during Swift’s Eras Tour stop in London in 2024.
And don’t expect the bride to be the only one pulling off multiple outfit changes on Friday night.
“Travis has transformed game-day entrances into his personal runway, and for his most important arrival yet into the world’s most famous arena, I would not be shocked if he has at least one outfit change, bringing something that shines under the flashing lights of MSG,” Marchitelli said.
Kelce has long favored flashy West Coast brand Amiri for his suiting, selecting a sparkling black number for the 2024 Super Bowl and a bold, ’70s-inspired rust-colored set for last year’s big game. Marchitelli, however, doesn’t expect Amiri to factor into his wedding wardrobe; “I don’t think they can cut it (no pun intended) for this one,” he quipped.
He doesn’t anticipate Thom Browne or Tommy Hilfiger — for whom Kelce will become a brand ambassador starting in September — contributing looks this weekend, either.
But the suit maker does expect some bling.
“Metallic accents and sparkle? I can see it. Diamond or gem stone appliqués on his jacket lapels? Now that I can really see, and wouldn’t be mad at all,” Marchitelli said.
“If there’s one guy who can pull it off, it’s Killa Trav.”
