Serious without a suit: The new trend you should follow

For the past few days, I've been humming “Nothing suits me like a suit” – the song from How I Met Your Mother that expresses Barney Stinson's obsession with this attire. It's not just good old Barney who has this obsession: millions of people around the world share it, at least when it comes to formal occasions and even everyday office wear. But as I hummed it, I also challenged Barney and millions of others: do we really need to wear a suit to exude power, to mean business?

Is it time to talk about such trivial and useless things when the country is going through such a massive change? As it turns out, it's all connected! Call me the Lord of Useless Things, but it is indeed a peculiar curiosity when I notice that some of the student leaders wear casual clothes even on the most formal occasions. I will keep this in mind the next time I am invited to a black tie event!
