My god, it’s a gilded junk shop!
(I knew it was bad, but all the tacky gewgaws seem to have multiplied.)

I guess we should count ourselves lucky that his dress sense isn’t as flashy and vulgar as his interior design sense.
Though it’s always surprised me that such a status-obsessed New Yorker dresses so cheaply—regardless of style.
e.g.
Make me look like a man whose father never taught him to tie a tie, who gets his shoes at a Long Island mall and can’t be bothered with alterations when he buys a suit off the rack!
@silvermoon82 I've seen a different take on the suits: that he only wants the most expensive suits, from ~luxury materials~ like silk. So the drape is weird, it wrinkles easily, it's never going to flatter his body type. Wool (or a similar weight fabric) would give him a better silhouette, but that's not ~luxury material~ so he won't have it. It's no more than amateur psychology but I think it holds up.
