Menswear writer Derek Guy on Zelenskyy’s lack of suit in the WH: “I dislike the idea of respectability in dress…because it conflates the *appearance* of virtue with *actual* virtue. Wearing a suit doesn’t make you respectful, intelligent, or capable.” https://bsky.app/profile/dieworkwear.bsky.social/post/3ljbptvmvvs2v

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

@kottke "Wearing a suit doesn't make you respectful, intelligent, or capable." Imagine if Zelenskyy had responded with that. I imagine that the room would have looked somewhat like the climax scene from Kingsman.
