The Sochi Olympics are the pinnacle of winter sporting achievement. Here at Mullen & Mullen, we've all been hooked in the incredible athlete's achievements so far - of course, in sports, you get out what you Putin (I'm snow board of Olympics puns). However, sometimes the athletes fashion choices dazzle more than the gold medals.
Curling frequently gets overlooked, but not Norway, whose choice of suits made sure they got noticed. If you do like such a pattern, please save it for the lining!
The US came out for the opening ceremony in Ralph Lauren. Our views on the Christmas jumper are quite clear. Surely a beautiful red cashmere jumper would have suited better?
But not as brave as the German team, whose colourful outfits stole the show. When choosing a classic coat to last several seasons, chose a classic style, such as one of our bespoke overcoats.
55 year old Mexican skier, Hubertus von Hohenlohe stole the show with a Mariachi-themed suit.
Putin - Russia
Finally, Putin, who is seems only has 1 suit. Why not take inspiration from Obama? His distinguished blue suit, custom tailored by Hartmarx (the largest suit maker in the United States) is so popular that Hartmarx has named them the 'Obama Suit' - a two-button, single-breasted suit jacket and single pleated pant with inch-and-a-quarter cuffs, made of a 97% worsted wool and 3% cashmere blend.
Thinking about a Obama suit, or a dazzling lining?
