Where has Obama’s tan suit gone?

from In the Loop (Segments) · host WBEZ Chicago

In 2014, President Barack Obama stepped up to the podium in the White House Briefing Room to update the country on the economy, foreign policy and more. But all anyone could seem to talk about was the president’s fashion choice for the day. The president, known for usually wearing a navy or gray suit, made a rare fashion divergence – one that was described as everything from hands “cool” to “unpresidential.” But where is that suit now? We sit down with a reporter on the hunt for the suit.GUESTS: Lynn Sweet, Chicago Sun-Times special correspondentTerrell Frazier, lead interviewer for the Obama Presidential Oral History
