"The secret of his success?"
Faulty premise to begin with.
Blair has been a failure of a PM and will go down in history as Bush's poodle, a man who continuously neglected the will of his people in favor of appeasing a diabolical and maniacal American president.
So forgive me if I could give two craps about his brogues!
I have twenty year old Chetwynds in black and brown, seems like they were always on sale along with the Diplomats and Consuls.
One thing, I watched the 2 hour PBS/BBC "The Blair Decade" which has a lot of instances of English jacket and tie choices from a myriad of recet interviews with his friends, staff, party affiliates and the opposition and includes clips over the last ten years.
Good for British clothing research. Because all we are concerened about here is the clothing.
Who styles Blair?
Do we know yet?
(It's not me)
