BuzzFeed News assembled a veritable panel of experts* to discuss just who could've designed the reclusive leader's new duds.

"Black pinstripes with wide lapels always feels John Gotti wedding party or 'pit boss at the Borgata' to me," another said. "Black pinstripe suit + silver tie = slimeball that's taking himself VERY seriously."
*By which we mean friends and coworkers.
