Forget everything you think you know about fashion.
The new king of style is in town, and his name is Gov. Scott Walker.
Walker sports the latest in luxury couture on a daily basis, flaunting his game-changing threads whenever possible and turning heads wherever he goes. Truly, the modern fashion community is built upon the stylish foundations laid down by Wisconsin’s 45th governor and all-American father of two.
Burn your wardrobe and prepare yourself for a sartorial re-emergence with The Badger Herald’s guide to dressing like Walker.
