Garth Saloner, next Dean of Stanford Graduate School of Business

Here's a man who hasn't updated his collection of suits since he got his first low-level executive position in 1972. He also wore this to his wedding in 1978. And to funerals in 1982, 1987, 1988, 1992 and 1996. The suit was then 'mothballed' in 1997 in favour of a more casual, jacket-less style - but Garth's recent promotion demanded a quick dry clean and a return to service.

If suits could talk, the tales this one could tell!

Come on, Garth. There are some superb deals to be had on the high street at the moment. Single breasted suits aren't just for unruly young rock bands like The Beatles and the Rolling Stones. No one's going to think you're smuggling marijuana through customs just because you're wearing a modern fabric cut in a vaguely flattering manner.
