Last month I hosted a "Diversity Jeopardy" game show as part of our annual (required) EO meeting.
As befits the role, I was wearing my business suit. (It's not nearly as nice as yours, but I only need it occasionally). The suit was causing more double-takes than when I do obvious costume pieces for our annual haunted house!
This is particularly ironic, since what I've been wearing the last several years as "costume" for my storytelling host role in the haunted house is from my Imperial wardrobe, all of it the over-the-top formal wear with skirted frockcoats, silk waistcoats and matching cravats, jewelled studs and cufflinks, etc.
Ordinary business formal? Stopped people in their tracks.
