Suits were a consequence of the professionalization of what would otherwise be trade workers. Most of those that put on suits didn’t get to get a union, either.
A software developer is a machine monkey, just in air conditioning and no grease under their nails. For some god damn reason they have to wear a collar and tie. This pushed most of the devs with career mobility to reject that and you get the sandles-and-t-shirt techbro stereotype.
Suits are too expensive to get tailored and off-the-shelf ends up looking a bit tragic on the majority that are compelled to wear 'em.
Personally, I’m glad they’re almost dead.
