Esquire Lists Mark Zuckerberg Among 2010's Worst-Dressed Celebrities

mark zuckerbergIt's pretty clear that Mark Zuckerberg has about zero interest in wearing anything outside of his trademark, t-shirt/jeans/hoodie ensemble. But Esquire, for one, thinks the Facebook CEO should seriously consider investing in some new threads.

The magazine recently listed Zuck among the worst-dressed celebrities of 2010, ranking him alongside Robert Pattinson and John Mayer in its '2010 Celebrity Style Hall of Shame.' Esquire explains: "[N]o matter how much money you have or how many people's secrets you hold in your digital palm, you cannot show up to a black-tie event in a t-shirt and jeans and expect to be taken seriously. Seriously."

Instead, Esquire recommends that Zuck throw on the occasional sport coat, à la Bill Gates, or even splurge on "a couple of nice suits" from Zegna. Doing so may help him look more professional, but is the world really ready for a sleeker, more corporate Zuckerberg 2.0? Wouldn't that just add another unnecessary layer of ice to his already glacial disposition? Granted, Zuck's wardrobe may be only slightly more dynamic than Kim Jong-Il's, but that doesn't mean he should suddenly go all 'American Psycho' on us, either.
