From the 2018 Winter Olympics to the 2018 OscarsAdam Rippon continues to showcase his unique fashion style. And at the Academy Awards, perhaps he's feeling...naughty?

The figure skater, who helped the U.S. team win bronze and become a fan-favorite Olympian on social media, walked the red carpet on Sunday wearing a formal bondage-themed look: a cropped black tuxedo jacket with shoulder cut-outs, paired with matching pants and shoes, a white shirt, a black bow tie and a black leather studded criss-cross chest harness by Moschino's Jeremy Scott.

A person later complimented Rippon on his look, to which he responded, "Thank you, just something subtle."

Rippon posted a selfie showing him wearing the outfit on his Instagram Stories feed.

"Hoe, but make it fashion @Adaripp! #Oscars #YouAreFierce," tweeted Tyra Banks.

"My pretend son #AdamRippon #Oscars2018 #sohandsome #LOVE," wrote Rosie O'Donnell

Rippon arrived at the Oscars with his teammate Mirai Nagasu, who made skating history at the 2018 Winter Olympics by becoming the first American woman and third woman overall to land the triple Axel jump at an Olympics.

Olympic alpine skier Lindsey Vonn, who won a bronze medal in the downhill event, also attended the Oscars.

The 90th Academy Awards ceremony airs live on ABC from the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday, March 4. Jimmy Kimmel returns as the host.
