Suits You: 'Fabulous' Zelensky Outfit Wows Trump

Zelensky adopted a military-style suit to symbolize Ukraine's wartime leadership while aiming to improve diplomatic ties and support peace negotiations, officials said.

  • On Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky returned to the White House wearing a black shirt and blazer, signaling a diplomatic wardrobe shift.
  • Under pressure to secure a peace deal, Zelensky shifted from military outfits to formal wear after having visited the White House in February wearing military-style gear, which was scorned by Mr Trump.
  • A reporter said `You look fabulous in that suit,` and Mr Trump greeted Zelensky with a broad smile and handshake, showing approval.
  • Hoping the new look would win support, Zelensky aimed to use fashion diplomacy Monday to persuade Trump to back Ukraine's peace efforts, and he thanked Trump for a map showing Russian territorial gains.
  • Amid a diplomatic push, European leaders, including Finnish President Alexander Stubb, trained Zelensky for engaging with Trump, but outfit focus overshadowed peace talks.
