The RealReal is an online resale platform for designer items, which are authenticated by experts.

Weiderhoeft is most well known for its bridal gowns, which led Landriscina to dig into the backstory of the white, cropped tuxedo on The RealReal.

“The only men’s suit that came up when I looked for it was Ben Platt wearing it at the Met Gala in 2023,” he says. “Could this be Ben Platt’s actual Met Gala look?”

Platt is a Tony, Emmy, and Grammy Award-winning American singer and actor who has acted in Dear Evan Hansen on Broadway.

Landriscina says he decided to purchase the suit when the price went down.

As he tries on the suit, he notes that he may wear the suit if he ever gets married.

“The only question I’m left with is, ‘Who sold this on The RealReal?’” he asks.
