Slate: The enduring mystique of the white suit:
Now, a white suit, however inexpensive, is always an absurd impracticality, even an act of defiance against all practicality. It is also, in life as in movies and books, never neutral. Like a white Rolls Royce, for example, a white suit connotes grandness, tackiness, egotism, sex, and cash.
Khalil Greene awakens a fear in me that I have not felt for some time.
White suit, pink shirt, white tie and more oil in his hair than in the Middle East. I can't even start to imagine what could possibly be in that backpack or the note he is carrying. I'm guessing it's a horses head and a ransom letter.
