Former President Barack Obama was never meant to become a style icon. In fact, in Michelle Obama's book Becoming, she often laments her husband's complete and utter misunderstanding of fashion. (Of course, she does it lovingly.) But the funny thing about fame is that everything you do becomes important—maybe especially what you wear.
Obama figured out how his suit should fit and his ties should match early on, so his professional appearance was always consistent. But when it comes to off-duty Barry? There's no telling what he'll do. Polos tucked into khakis? Ray-Bans with a suit? Every kind of button-front under the sun? Even stuff that might call into question your sense of style just works on Obama. It's like the ultimate dad style, but with a crucial dose of presidential edge. Here's a look back through at how Obama and his wardrobe have evolved through the years.
