Barron Trump’s tailor gushes over ‘hospitable’ first son’s ‘dry sense of humor’

Barron Trump’s tailor praised the 18-year-old’s smarts, personality and fashion knowledge as he gushed about the president’s youngest son who has become a favorite among the MAGA following.

“He’s this super-bright kid. He’s well beyond his years in terms of experience, knowledge, history. He’s just very fascinating to talk to,” tailor Nathan Pearce said.

Barron was cheered loudly during a rally on Monday when introduced and was featured prominently in his father’s swearing-in. At the Capitol ceremony he wore a Bespoke suit as he stood next to his mother, Melania, near Donald as he took the oath of office.

The New York University freshman worked with Pearce Bespoke founder and CEO Nathan Pearce to find the perfect suit for the special occasion. The duo connected through social media influencer Justin Waller.

“Justin said he wanted to introduce me to Barron. Literally a week later I was on a flight down to Mar-a-Lago,” Nathan Pearce told Women’s Wear Daily.

Barron also flew down to Louisiana, where Pearce’s company is based, and reviewed linings, fabrics and buttons for his clothes, according to the outlet.

The NYU student boasted a dark blue suit and a matching tie at Monday’s ceremony. Hair slicked back above a blank expression, Barron stood out next to his seatmate, the overly-animated “First Buddy” Elon Musk.

The custom suitmaker said he has “thoroughly enjoyed” getting to know Barron over the last year or two.

“He’s hilarious. But as I said, he’s super-sharp. You put him in a room with star businessmen and he will hold his own. He can talk to them all day because he’s witty, smart and has a dry sense of humor,” Pearce added.

“You know what is another word I would say [about Barron]? Hospitable. He is down-to-earth, nice as can be and hospitable,” Pearce said about Barron who constantly thanked him.

Pearce expressed gratitude that the president’s youngest son wanted to work with him. “I recognize that Barron Trump could be choosing from tailors all over the world, and he chose me and Pearce Bespoke. I’m super-grateful and super-proud of that,” Pearce said.

At the inauguration in his new suit, Barron seemed to have no trouble talking to some of the world’s most influential people, having chatted with billionaire Jeff Bezos, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Senate Majority Leader John Thune for half an hour at Trump’s Inauguration Day Luncheon, Reuters reported.

But it was Musk and Barron’s interactions that captured the attention of many.

Some social media users pointed out how the pair exuded drastically different vibes during the event.

“Who decided to put @elonmusk and Barron Trump beside of each other. The difference in energy is hilarious,” one social media user wrote. “Barron looked incredibly uncomfortable the entire time.”

“This is what cringe looks like,” another remarked. “As an introvert, completely relatable.”
