Rick Santorum May Ditch Sweater Vests for 2016
Rick Santorum may get a new look courtesy of his daughters for the campaign.
— -- Coming soon to a rally near you: a fashion-forward Rick Santorum.
The newly-announced presidential candidate –- known for his signature sweater vests –- may be sporting an updated look in 2016.
"I have two daughters who are the fashion consultants -- they've appointed themselves the fashion consultants to the campaign and so you're going to be seeing attire that reflects their tastes, not mine," Santorum told ABC News’ Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos Wednesday.
In 2012, sales of Santorum-branded sweater vests reportedly netted $300,000 for the campaign – and spawned a number of parody accounts on Twitter.
Though Santorum’s newfound sartorial taste -– on display Wednesday in his exclusive interview with ABC News -– may project a more “presidential” air, we’ll never forget the grandpa-esque style of 2012.
