Weve yet to read an interview with the person who styled Bills silver locks for last nights DNC appearance, or even see a brief in Womens Wear Daily or GQ crediting the designers who dressed him for the occasion. Did he buy his suit online, like Melania Trumps Net-a-Porter-purchased Roksanda last week? Did he go to a store? Work directly with a designer? We just dont know, which means its going to be really difficult for this particular navy suit to sell out, as so many of the dresses worn by Michelle Obama have over the past eight years. Was it Hickey Freeman? Hart Schaffner Marx? Again, we just dont know.
Heres what we do know: Clintons suit was navy blue, and he wore a tonal cobalt tie in a shade similar to the Christian Siriano dress Michelle Obama wore the night before. (Some noted then that the dress matched the stages background. Clintons tie did too!) The suit had two buttons, a notch lapel, and full-cut trousers that broke substantially over his shiny black dress shoes. One might have even called it a pantsuit.

As a fashion moment, it might have been a little underwhelming, but as a historical one, it was not. Clintons look stated clearly: Im with her.
