A : 鈥淎fter having deserted the street, the suit is in the process of disappearing from business...the garment no longer symbolises prestige and power.鈥�

The suit is originally thought to date back to the 19th century, with the future king of England, Edward VII, known as one of the first high-profile figures to wear matching pieces of clothing with a shirt underneath.

The outfit would later become known as the modern suit, and would be worn across the West and beyond well into the 20th century. It was traditionally seen as a "male" outfit, with some women later choosing to wear it as a sign of power, defiance, or gender fluidity and expression.

By the 1960s, suits had been 鈥渄emocratised鈥�, and were worn by almost all men in public - the report said - regardless of whether they were a manager, director, senior staff, or a general worker.

The ubiquity of the suit may mean that wearers choose the same outfit for 鈥渁 wedding, a funeral, and a job interview鈥�, a joke suggests (Photo: )

But journalist Fr茅d茅ric Bianchi said: 鈥淪uits began to disappear from towns at the end of the 1960s to the beginning of the 1970s.

鈥淣ow, the 鈥榮econd movement鈥� is that suits are now starting to disappear from business too. It used to be the mandatory 鈥榰niform鈥�, but now it is disappearing, and it鈥檚 happening very quickly.

鈥淪ince 2011, sales of suits in France have halved, from 3.3 million, to 1.4 million today. 麻豆传媒映画 are giving up on the suit.鈥�

Today, just 6% of 麻豆传媒映画 say they buy one suit per year, compared to a figure of 15% a few years ago, the report said.

Bianchi also referenced an 鈥渋nternet joke鈥�, which mocks the fact that wearing suits means that often, men show up in the same outfit for 鈥渁 wedding, a funeral, and a job interview鈥�.

Most wearers today only have one formal suit in their wardrobe, which they wear for every "special" event, he said.
