Mark Zuckerberg corrects journalist in report on brand popular among billionaires

by

New York Magazine journalist Jen Wieczner shared a funny story involving her and Mark Zuckerberg. It turns out that the billionaire, founder and CEO of Meta, the conglomerate that brings together Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp, corrected her about a fashionable sweater, on which she had bet all her skills as an investigative journalist.

Zuckemberg was referring to the report that Wieczner wrote about how elite technology professionals were assiduously adopting Loro Piana clothing. She explains that the main characters of “Succession” popularized the “discreet luxury” trend by using the brand, and Bill Gates, the owner of Microsoft, had been a customer for a long time.

However, no matter how much detailed research he had done, the businessman’s photo did not portray him wearing the American brand, but another, which he made a point of talking about on social media. “That shirt is Buck Mason. Also chic,” he commented.

She assured that she did her job as an investigative journalist very well and asked the designers and the brand itself “the all-important question: Could this soft-looking, long-sleeved blue shirt that Zuck wore to the ‘summer camp for billionaires’ in Sun Valley Is it from Loro Piana?”

According to Wieczner, an experienced menswear salesman in New York City, he rendered a verdict: The sweater was probably from Loro Piana. But it seems like it wasn’t enough. Mark Zuckemberg doesn’t dress the same way as Kendal and Roman Roy.
