While the bevy of sharp black tuxes on the red carpet gets too safe, Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon decided to drop a show-stealer at the 90th Academy Awards this year. The 28-year-old, who was one of the first openly gay American man to compete in the South Korean Winter Olympics Games, chose to make an entrance in a Moschino look from Jeremy Scott.

In an event dominated by female fashion, Rippon decided to shake things up in a fetish-inspired tuxedo, which came with a black leather harness and ripped embellishments. His attire also featured a bondage reference built into the jacket. The bronze medallist, who has had a newfound status as a social media star, provided the Internet with its first fashion talking point with his BDSM-inspired suit from the Oscars today, and here’s what Twitterati had to say about it.
