"A new industry developed new stars of dress. You think of kind of Silicon Valley and all those new media industries where you know it's actually a virtue not to wear a suit, you know a suit's for squares - that's rather old-fashioned language. But you know there is a kind of reaction against the suit, isn't there?"
"Yeah, I think when we see the 1960s, we see a move towards casualisation. And you're quite right in more formal industries like the law, like banking, people still wear the formal suit. But Silicon Valley, media people like yourself indeed wear open-necked shirts. But even in those areas now with the current difficulty with job market, you find it actually people are dressing flauntily more smartly. They are being a little more cautious. And when you look at the sort of best-dressed man in Britain today, guess what, he is backing a suit."
