On a serious note tho, he could use a new stylist, dat suit has some very unhealthy lapels and it lookin like it has 3+ buttons... very un-GQ.

Remember though GQ mainly highlights runway fashion and fashion trends... not necessarily business suits... which are cut differently from the European-inspired threads showcased in GQ.

But Patos definitely need a new tailor... the suit material and cut outdated, plus it seems ill-fitting. Dunno if he lost weight due to the recent surgery.

Nah three-button suits still in style... for Obama is probably just a matter of personal taste.

The type of suits you see in GQ is the type you'd expect to see on Beckham etc. They have a narrower cut and so they look constricting if it had more than the two buttons. That's also why you almost never see them with both buttons buttoned. You're supposed to button the top button only if you're shorter (or heavier) and the bottom button only if you're taller.

lol, kill it wid d GQ talk, I wasnt being serious about GQ, I was jus sayin his suit kinda old.

In Europe, if u wear more than 2 buttons u look like an imps, I guess its different in d US. I'm suprised tho, I cant think of any stylish person who wears 3 buttons anymore.
