The Style of Joe Biden
August 27, 2008
There's no doubt that Joe Biden has style -- yet that style often teeters between snazzy gangster and dapper car salesman. I'm not sure if he wears a diamond pinkie ring, but he should. He certainly can pull it off with that swagger and bemused, crazy glint in his eyes. You have to hand it Biden: The man always looks stately and slick. Often referred to the best-dressed man in the senate, Biden struts around shooting French cuffs out of well-cut suits and sometimes sports playful suspenders. Biden made Esquire's Best Dressed list in 2006 -- as did Barack Obama! -- coming in at #14 (Obama was #18). "[Biden's] style -- strong, traditional suits, bold power ties, subtle pocket squares, weighty cuff links, substantial watches -- unmistakably says 'authority,'" gushed the mag. Sartorially speaking, the guy is not boring. So, where does Diamond Joe shop?
That would be Thomas Pink, of course! According to reports, the day before Biden joined Barack Obama as his running mate, he was spotted at the British tailor buying a crisp white Black Label shirt and a Liquorice Plain Sky tie in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Oh, and when he’s not shopping, apparently he’s working on his song-and-dance routine, despite being totally shitfaced.
