A quarter million suits and Prada loafers: What is Rishi Sunak wearing?

“Clever, logical and precise. When I look at Rishi Sunak, I remember Daniel Craig as James Bond,” said Priya Elan, fashion editor of The Guardian, characterizing the look of the head of the UK Cabinet.

According to the expert, the style combines the new Prime Minister of Great Britain with “agent 007”.

“It’s not how he moves and gestures, it’s how he dresses. The altar looks like a hit man planning a quick cleanup after a completed mission. There is a simplicity and frugality in his style that contrasts with how conservatives usually dress. The altar is here to do its work.”

explained.

The image of Rishi Sunak really compares favorably with the images of his predecessors. Take, for example, Boris Johnson. British GQ described Boris as the “worst-dressed prime minister of all time” for his unfitting suits and crumpled shirts, while The Sun tabloid mocked him for wearing the same socks three days in a row. And that’s not to mention the fact that Johnson’s forever messy hair is regularly ridiculed.

Journalists didn’t like Liz Truss, who headed the government for a record short time — just 45 days. Although Truss looked neat, in their opinion, she copied the style of the “iron lady” Margaret Thatcher, moreover, she did not always succeed and gave rise to many memes.

On the contrary, Rishi Sunak is already considered a style icon – less than a week since his appointment as prime minister.

“The Conservatives haven’t looked this good since Winston Churchill”

British GQ fashion director Theo van de Broek wrote.

Unlike Boris Johnson, Rishi Sunak knows a lot about well-made suits. According to the Daily Mail, they are sewn to individual measures in London’s finest workshops, specifically Henry Herbert Tailors. The issuance price is £ 3.5 thousand (250 thousand rubles).

“The collars of Rishi jackets are always very narrow. This helps to visually make the shoulders wider. Thin collars and ties allow you to maintain the correct proportions of the figure, ”the stylist Lucas Armitage said in an interview with the Daily Mail.

The expert suggested that his wife Akshata Murthy had a hand in the image of Rishi Sunak – she understands fashion and in 2007-2012. he owned his own brand, Akshata Designs, but was shut down for not making a profit.

“Rishi knows her body very well, knows what suits her and skillfully integrates them into her wardrobe. Short pants are practical and comfortable, they allow you to visually lengthen your legs and increase your height. The ribbed shirts emphasize that he is well-built, moderately free and does not restrict movement,” Daily Mail journalists quote stylist Rochelle White.

Not only suits, but also shirts of Rishi Sunak are made to order. According to The Telegraph, Italian brand The Traveling relies on Artisan – its production is located in Veneto in northeastern Italy, and prices start at £160 (11 thousand rubles) per item. Brand founder Tullio Innocenti says: Altar is so pedantic that he comes three times to try on each shirt.

“Recently Rishi is an investment banker, he knows what to invest in”,

– Write to the editors of Apollo Magazine, referring not only to tailored suits and shirts, but also to Prada loafers worth £450 (32k rubles) where the Altar was once seen.

Guardian fashion editor Priya Elan described Rishi Sunak’s style as “hedge fund haute couture”. The new Prime Minister of Great Britain always looks presentable, even in an informal setting – in a “Stanford” T-shirt (that’s the Altar’s grad school) and cashmere hoodies.

Rishi Sunak wears no jewelry other than a wedding ring with the inscription “dada” (“father”) and a beaded bracelet that his children Krishna and Anushka probably knit for him.

“Well-cut, navy or charcoal doublet suits, white shirts, striped ties. No pocket squares or unnecessary jewelry. Nobody needs luxury today. The British need a serious man with serious eyes who can stand up on the world stage and reassure the nation that he can take care of them. One day the time for button-down shirts and chino pants will come again, but for now we need confidence, strength and seriousness. “And it’s a suit,” Tom Whhid, co-founder of Mayfair Thom Sweeney, concluded in an interview with British GQ.

Last week, on October 24, former British Finance Minister Rishi Sunak became leader of the ruling Conservative Party and headed the government a day later. His name is accompanied by the prefix “most” in the press: the youngest British Prime Minister of the last 200 years, one of the wealthiest Britons, and finally the most stylish at 10 Downing Street. ru”.
