Barack Obama: A Real- Deal Trend Setter

Monday, February 23, 2009

Who would have thought that fashion will suddenly delve in a world of politics, on the presidential race to be specific. The pantsuit of Hillary Clinton became a popular topic since the family resided in the White House and during her candidacy that trend is patronized.

The election is over. And Obama is the newly elected president of the United States. But it was the campaign why the critics and the crowd notice his conservative paradigm on men’s business suit, and his inclination to wear an open collar without a necktie that caused minor swirls the national news. Then the fashion of President Obama is transformed to be ingenuous high-profile item. Although it happens, it is very unusual that the fashion industry of men finds an icon.



After the election, sales of the suit preferred by the US President reported a significant raise. The Hartmax suit is a sound cut, with sharp, clean lines that’s why it’s not really astonishing to favor a bit of extra exposure in the media. But more than just a simple style, there have been other influences that made Barack Obama a fashion icon. This is his air of confidence and slightly casual mannerisms. We can at least anticipated more of them and similar fashion on businessmen and professionals quite soon.



Concerning the neckties, it is hard to determine if the president impose clout on the male public. And there have been significan events that take place men’s business suit. What is always visible is the absence of tie which is considered casual. Wearing a suit in the absence of necktie is acceptable in casual or semi-formal situations for many years. As a matter of fact, loosening or removing a tie after the more formal portion of an event or function is no longer amusing for a man. Barack Obama had formal public appearances where you can see a trendy necktie. Whether wearing a necktie or not, it’s no longer a big deal because he simply knows when and how to look his best.
