Zelenskiy's Wardrobe: A New Era of Visual Diplomacy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy is known for his media-savvy approach. After being criticized for his casual military attire during a meeting with Donald Trump, Zelenskiy has shifted to wearing rugged black suits while maintaining his signature solidarity with the troops.

This sartorial change accompanies Zelenskiy's efforts to improve relations with countries like the United States, whose military support remains critical for Ukraine in its ongoing conflict with Russia. Despite no signs of new U.S. military aid matching previous levels, Zelenskiy continues to engage with international leaders.

His updated wardrobe has gained attention and praise, labeled as 'visual diplomacy' by the Ukrainian edition of ELLE magazine. Zelenskiy's clothing evolution mirrors his diplomatic priorities, subtly blending formality with a nod to his military roots, amidst Ukraine's struggle for international support.
