The thing is when he is not playing golf on Martha's Vineyard or vacationing in Hawaii, Mr Obama has been known to wear dark, sober colors to press conferences and town hall meetings.
Speaking to Vanity Fair in 2012, the president addressed his approach to sartorial choices.
‘You'll see I wear only grey or blue suits,’ Obama told the magazine. ‘I'm trying to pare down decisions. I don't want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make.’
The outpouring of snide comments about the beige ensemble donned by the president for the press conference provoked anger in some quarters, with commenters like NBC News’ Louis Dubois fuming that constituents should be paying attention to what Obama says rather than to the color of his suit.
‘Obama is talking about ISIS, Ukraine, immigration and more here. You know, "news." Yet people are talking about a tan suit,’ he wrote.
