Where did <I>Iron Man</i> go?

Robert Downey Jr swapped his metal armour for something more suited to the local costume while promoting Iron Man 3 with Gwyneth Paltrow in Munich, Germany.

The actor chose to wear a pair of traditional German lederhosen for the photocall, complete with leather boots and a kerchief wrapped around his neck.

Gywneth Paltrow was her usual elegant safe in a white KaufmanFranco dress, and looked happy enough to be photographed with her quirkily-costumed co-star.
