A few days ago, the journalist Mark Dent published on Vox.com an article entitled : "How the power suit lost its power" in which he explains that if the suit was once the uniform of the powerful and a requirement for every man, now, people mostly wear suits when they’re in trouble or when they are "not in control". To illustrate his theory, Dent takes the example of Facebook's founder Mark Zuckerberg wearing a navy blue suit in April, 2018, in front of the American Congress. This infamous suit has been described by the New York Times as the "I'm Sorry Suit". Hugo Jacomet and Sonya Glyn challenge this article and react in a live talk-show to Dent's arguments and explain that the new rebels of the 21st century may not be the ones you think...Support the showOur YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SARTORIALTALKSSupport the show: https://www.patreon.com/sartorialtalks
