What T diplomats must wear abroad
Washington debates whether American diplomats may wear bright court attire or stick to the plain black evening dress when abroad. The matter, once guided by a 1519 law for a blue and gold uniform, has resurfaced as Europe questions U S dress customs. Congress is expected to consider adopting or maintaining the traditional attire, with foreign representatives likely to vary uniforms by nation while Latin diplomats show more colorful styles. The issue hinges on national pride and diplomatic decorum as U S policy awaits a final stance.
