Another use for black suits

[Troilus]

While SF mandates that black suits are only acceptable for funerals and formal wear, and I believe we overlooked an important third occasion: sentencing in a federal insider trader case.

From the NYT: "Mr. Rajaratnam, dressed in a black suit, had no expression as the verdict was read in the overflowing courtroom."

No wonder he was found guilty on all counts.

He is guilty of sartorial crime anyway...

Actually, I don't think he looks too bad. Part of the reason we don't wear black is that it looks too harsh next to our pasty white skin. I'm not sure our rules apply to everybody though.

Looks where they touch shoulders. It's lighter than the navy(?) suit.

LOLZ, pre-tied bowtie and notch lapels. I guess it takes more than 63.5M...

perhaps he chose to wear black for its slimming properties.

Maybe he's a Satan worshipper? I'm so funny!

I'm not sure what's up with people who think black is slimming, but other dark colors aren't.

In any case, that's a great tricky for girls with a little belly fat, but it's of no use to a large man. To a big dude, being the large black thing contrasting the room will make you look no thinner.

Yeah, that's what he thought about insider trading, too...

I feel bad for him. He just wanted to be super rich. Poor chap.
