  • The Political Runway: D.C.'s Dress Code

    09/02/2018 Duration: 26min

    Over the years, politicians have developed a dress code all their own. From blue and red ties for men, to skirt suits and pearls for women, the public has grown accustomed to seeing politicians in certain attire. But why do we hold female and male politicians to different fashion standards, and what will happen as more Millennials run for public office and traditional dress becomes a thing of the past? CNN's Hunter Schwarz and Kate Bennett talk with Robin Givhan of The Washington Post about this and more in the first episode of the COVER/LINE series "The Political Runway" from CNN. via Knit
