Joseph Vijay made history as Tamil Nadu’s first Chief Minister to enter the assembly in a sharp coat suit, breaking a long-standing tradition. His bold fashion choice has sparked buzz, setting a new benchmark for power dressing.
Everyone's talking about CM Vijay's black coat suit. Usually, politicians stick to the classic veshti and white shirt. But Vijay broke that mould, becoming the first CM to enter the assembly in a suit. While some feel he should wear our traditional veshti-sattai, he's sticking to his new style.

The Secret Behind Vijay's 'Coat-Suit'
So, what's the story behind the suit? Turns out, famous designer Sabir Ahmed created it. The inspiration for the look came from Vijay's role in the movie 'Beast', directed by Nelson. Vijay himself picked the colour black, as it stands for power, authority, and individuality.

Vijay becomes a trendsetter
The designer apparently took two whole days just to get the fit perfect for Vijay. By choosing a suit, he has broken the veshti-sattai tradition followed by past Tamil Nadu CMs. Right after his swearing-in, Vijay also met senior leaders like M.K. Stalin, Vaiko, Anbumani, and Seeman to seek their blessings.
Vijay's party, Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam, is already making big moves. He ordered the closure of 717 TASMAC shops located near schools, colleges, and temples. This decision has earned praise from leaders like Kamal Haasan and Premalatha. The party is also set to prove its majority in the assembly soon.
