New Gucci collection suits these Pats just fine

Tom Brady [stats]’s not the only stylish New England Patriot these days — Julian Edelman, Stephen Gostkowski and Brian Hoyer, along with GQ magazine’s executive merchandising director Brett Fahlgren, hosted a celebration of Gucci’s spring/summer 2012 men’s suit collection at the brand’s Prudential Center boutique last night.“(Tom) has really brought me into the world of fashion — I try my best to keep up with him,” said Hoyer in a crisp navy suit. “It’s hard to keep up with that guy!” addedGostkowski.

Edelman, who arrived fashionably late, was teased by his teammates for trying to replicate Brady’s Met Gala artful swoosh hairstyle and getting delayed.
“We do have the same hairstylist (Pini Swissa), but you can’t copy that!” Edelman said with a laugh. Edelman chose a plaid suit that he said was “Mad Men”-inspired for the season.

Fahlgren said the pairing of the dapper Patriots [team stats] and the iconic house of Gucci was a no-brainer: “The team is made up of such high-character guys. There are no better hosts — they’ve got some really great style.
