Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman's signature casual attire, even at formal events like President Biden's Inauguration, continues to generate discussion. While some find his choice of clothing unconventional, Fetterman remains unfazed, emphasizing more pressing issues. His style has also garnered attention in light of his meeting with former President Trump and Kellyanne Conway's repeated appearance in the same outfit at both Trump's inaugurations.

Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman is known for his casual attire, often sporting oversized sweatshirts and sneakers, even at formal events. This trend continued during President Biden's inauguration, where Fetterman donned athletic shorts and a hoodie, disregarding both the chilly weather and the event's grandeur. While some have criticized his choice of clothing, Fetterman has defended his style, stating that there are more pressing matters to address than his wardrobe.

This disregard for traditional attire has become a signature for the senator, starkly contrasting the button-down shirts and dress shoes commonly seen among his Congressional colleagues. The only time Fetterman is expected to be dressed formally is on the Senate floor. Fetterman's unconventional style has generated considerable attention, including a recent incident where he was the first sitting Democratic senator to meet with former President Trump at Mar-a-Lago. Trump expressed his approval of Fetterman's attire, even foregoing his planned Martin Luther King Jr. Day events to attend the inauguration. Notably, New York City Mayor Eric Adams, while attending the inauguration, had to skip MLK Day celebrations in Brooklyn and Manhattan to ensure his timely arrival at the Capitol. Meanwhile, former Trump counselor Kellyanne Conway has become the subject of online amusement for her repeat appearance in the same outfit at Trump's inaugurations. She donned the same red-collared, blue-and-white striped coat, matching red leather gloves, and felt hat she wore in 2017, earning her criticism and comparisons to a meme. Conway's choice of clothing has sparked a conversation about personal style and the impact of public appearances
