Too funny. Proof that Obama has transcended politics and is now a rock star. And someone we now, quite literally, ascribe our dreams to.

The Thom Browne watercolors look nice. Looks like he drew them himself?

he should do the morning coat and cravat- it'd make the fat cats more comfortable with him.

Very cool...

I found myself liking the Rag & Bone formalwear.

And, dare I say, the Nautica suit?

I myself don't know why he doesn't do it, but the fact is he doesn't.

None of this means I am recommending that DSquared look.

The Nautica and Hilfiger looks are the best. It's a shame that their suits don't look anything like that or else I would be able to find some easily available cheap RTW.
