Maybe he wore it for Eid?

Chris Pine is currently on holiday in Capri, Italy, this week. And decided to get the Middle East’s attention by wearing what us here in the UAE will know as a thobe. 

It’s a breath of fresh air from the thousands of Hawaiian shirt-clad masses currently taking over the world’s Instagram Feeds. 

Pine was papped by photographers while traipsing cross rocks on the Italian coast and decided to reward the eagle-eyed photographers with Usain Bolt’s signature arm gesture. 

We commend Chris Pine’s fashion sense this time around (unlike the time he turned up to ComicCon looking like a bowl of sorbet) as a thobe is probably the single greatest summer garment – the long, flowy fabric conveys effortless cool, and most importantly keeps, the netherregions well-ventilated.
