- Mark Zuckerberg has always been known for his ordinary appearance, even though he is one of the richest people in the world with current assets according to Forbes of more than USD 154 billion or around IDR 2,400 trillion. He likes to wear a gray T-shirt that doesn't change styles. But not anymore, Zuckerberg is more stylish.
Quoted by detikINET from the Guardian, all this time the leaders of the technology industry have signaled that they are serious people who do serious things through their simple clothes.
Crypto magnate Sam Bankman-Fried (now in prison) always looks like he just woke up and forgot to change out of his pajamas. The late Steve Jobs was famous for wearing black polo. Mark Zuckerberg once boasted that he owns and wears several versions of the same t-shirt because it's efficient.

"I'm not a cool person and I've never really tried to be cool. I really want to clear my life so I have to make as few decisions as possible. "I feel like I'm not doing my job if I spend my energy on silly or unimportant things," he said in an interview.
Zuck also often has short hair without styling. But now, suddenly the tech moguls seem to be letting go of their anti-style sentiments and developing an interest in fashion. There's Amazon owner Jeff Bezos who has transformed from skinny e-commerce nerd to Hollywood supervillain.

Gone are the ill-fitting shirts and chinos. The Amazon founder is now often seen wearing a cowboy hat, trendy sunglasses and tight t-shirts. Elon Musk has also experienced dramatic changes. Previously his hair was almost bald, but now he has thick hair, perhaps at an expensive cost. Like Bezos, Musk also looks stylish, favoring a Top Gun-style pilot's jacket
Well, Zuckerberg jumped on the bandwagon. When the Facebook founder recently posted an Instagram video about Meta's newest AI assistant, everyone was shocked. His hair is thicker and he wears a chain necklace.
This video is not the first evidence of Zuck's so-called meta-morphosis. When he came to the UFC show with his wife, he appeared like a rapper. Now, Zuck's social media shows himself to be more stylish.
"Why is he changing? Is this some kind of midlife crisis? Has he finally run out of money to spend and hired a stylist? Maybe. But cynics might consider a more plausible explanation, that this is part of a wider strategic overhaul of the tech mogul's public image," the Guardian said.
Meta is involved in an anti-trust lawsuit and is being sued by dozens of US states that accuse Facebook and Instagram of exploiting children to increase profits. Maybe Zuck wanted to divert attention.
