I have until this point and will continue to keep this blog apolitical. However, politics, in particular American politics is a great place to observe traditional dress. With that being said, I will begin to feature politicians from the past and present regardless of which side of the aisle they find themselves as long as they find themselves appropriately dressed.
For my first venture into politics I bring you George Herbert Walker Bush. It turns out that besides being the 41st President of the United States, 43rd Vice President, a congressman, ambassador and the Director of the CIA President Bush was and still is a faithful Trad. This should come of no surprise as he was born in Massachusetts lived in Connecticut attended the Phillips Academy in Andover and is a well-known Yalie (and Skull & Bones member). I now present President Bush, perhaps the last president to grace the Oval Office in 3/2 sack suit.
A very young Bush.
A Trad family.
Skull & Bones 1947. Can you spot him?
On the move.
On the campaign trail.
Note the watchband.
Looking cool.
Sporting light blue pants.
