Stephen Colbert led a tongue‑in‑cheek style tribute to Barack Obama's infamous 'tan suit' at the opening of the Obama Presidential Centre in Chicago, arriving in a near‑match to the 2014 outfit that once sparked a minor political furore and helping to turn the ceremony into an unexpected celebration of the look.

Back then, the look sparked a wave of media backlash for being 'too casual' for serious political affairs.
