Thai Suit

Everyone in Hong Kong prefers a solid black suit. Whenever students have presentations to give, or whatever else the occasion may be, they are always in a black suit, you would think they were forced to do so but no, they all feel a black suit is superior. Interestingly, the ladies always always and I mean always wear skirt suits! Never ever pant suits and of course always black, which is quite limited in terms of choice…. I always ask why, I wonder why the conformity of it all is not dawning on them? I always tell them “sometimes it’s good to stand out from the crowd” which they agree to but yet stick to the black. Next time I have a presentation I’ll have to wear a grey pant suit; I’ll let u know how that goes. Being that I had no black suit I got one tailored for me in Thailand, it has my initial on it and everything (the only problem is that I can’t gain or loss weight)
