Thomas recently wore an outrageous suit on ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’

Although Thomas should have access to the best clothes and designs, the character’s fashion choices haven’t always received positive reviews from watchers of The Bold and the Beautiful. In an episode that aired in late September, Thomas and Brooke got into a tense confrontation – but many fans couldn’t get past the suit that Thomas wore.

The heir to Forrester Creations wore a suit that featured a tight white shirt and ill-fitting suspenders that looped around his shoulders and under his armpits. The shirt highlighted the fact that Thomas wasn’t wearing an undershirt as a layering piece, and for many viewers, the sheer ugliness of the outfit was a distraction from the actual dramatic meat of the scene. Immediately after the episode aired, fans took to Twitter to talk about the suit that Thomas wore.

Fans were quick to take Thomas to task for the suit he wore, with one fan posting on Twitter that his “ugly shirt” is fitting for an “ugly” character. Another fan said that Thomas isn’t well styled and a lot of his ensembles don’t look good on him.

As another fan noted that his shirt was “funny” and the striping on the shirt looked strange. Several fans pointed out the sheer design of his shirt, slamming it as being too distracting, with one Twitter fan saying, “all I see is nipples.”
