WHY PETE BUTTIGIEG WEARS THE SAME COLOR DRESS EVERY DAY?

Have you noticed that Pete Buttigieg wears the same color dress - white shirt, bluish pants, brown shoes for every public appearance - rally, TV interview etc.? The only accessory he changes is his tie and sometimes he puts on the jacket.

He always has his tie up to his neck and his sleeves rolled up.

I watched all of his TV interviews and rallies on YouTube and conformed what I noticed.

It is not important but I want to ask you if there is something behind it such as he or his campaign thinks he looks more official, serious, grown up in a formal dress with a white shirt? Is it possible that he is superstitious?

I have read that the Wimbledon champion tennis player Björn Borg had a superstition for the final Wimbledon match that not shaving was lucky for him in the game.

Kinda smart to not spend money on an extensive wardrobe. Too bad women cannot get away with that.

Maybe, just MAYBE, he lives in a country where he's allowed to dress how he wants to, and chooses to do just that.

You have a point. No doubt.
That's why I said it was not important but could he just be superstitious?
You might say who gives a fukc? That's a good answer too.

I hadn't noticed, and really don't find it noteworthy. Now if he campaigns wearing a cloak made of rubber chickens, I'll applaud loudly and he'll secure my vote.

I will applaud too but that is not the point.

Imagine if this were written about a female candidate.

I'll chalk it up being a gay man with no flair for dressing, or, just perhaps, he doesn't want the conservative media to scrutinize his outfits like they do female candidates (you know, much like you feminized his shirt and tie into his "dress" ).

I was not feminizing but I have not seen men dressing the same in public, especially political candidates on campaign trails. This is the time to look elegant in more ways, time to impress, time to show some flair etc. But that's me. His campaign obviously knows better.

@Tiramisu he's going to get the worst of both worlds being gay. Political calculation is probably don't stir up the homophobe stereotype machine. A sense of fashion will do that more than looking like one of the world's most boring dressers.

@1of5 Buttigieg said there is only one to way to find out... which is run.

As for fashion, my guess is that he is avoiding looking cute and more attractive because he is gay and avoiding more comments and memes from the other side. he is very articulate and intelligent to me no matter what he does. I have started liking this guy's candidacy.

Trump always wears a baggy suit and a red "power" tie that dangles beyond his crotch region.

@Deb57 thanks for reminding me.
