One is reminded of the inimitable Stephen Potter's advice in Gamesmanship (1947) where he proposes a weaponized anti-style tactic of arriving at one's tennis match against a stuffy all-whites opponent while dressed in lime green jersey, Madras shorts, white sneakers, and deep black knee-socks.
"In every battle the eyes are the first to be conquered..."
- Tacitus, Germania
"One must work in solitude as a man who opens a clearing in virgin forest, sustained by the unique hope that somewhere in its depths, others are working to the same end."
- Ernst Jünger
"I find that I must go handsomely, whatever it costs me, and the charge will be made up in the fruit it brings."

I have never seen you in this outfit, although you have posted extremely openly hundreds of 'self-shots', as is obviously the customs of Americans.
