Suck Being the Operative Word

I am the last person who should ever be giving anyone fashion advice. But can someone please tell me - does anyone actually like how seersucker looks?

There have been all these commentaries in the Washington press about how tacky flip-flops are and what the sociological ramifications of popping a collar are, but seersucker seems to pass unscathed.

And I have to say, I kind of hate it.

When I walk around capitol hill and see all these men in seersucker I get the sense that everyone's mommy has dressed them up to go to Easter Dinner. Sorry, but I do. Like they should be wearing short pants and trailing a little wooden duck behind them.

And seersucker isn't flattering, to anyone.

Maybe if it's worn with a sense of irony I can smile about it. But I detect no irony from the men on the hill.

I know it is hot in DC. I am sure seersucker is cooler than other suits. And it must suck to have to wear a suit to work everyday, really, I understand that.

But rethink the seersucker.

Please.
