pinstripe suit

Wall Street uniform

A pinstripe suit is a suit made from fabric with thin, parallel vertical lines running through it, typically white or light-colored stripes against a darker background like navy or charcoal.

The style is associated with business formality and, in certain contexts, with bankers, lawyers, and organized crime figures: He looked every inch the Wall Street executive in his pinstripe suit.
