There's a part of the FAQ relevant to this that might be a good place to start: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/dailylife#wiki_suits_.26amp.3B_ties
As a follow-up, when did suits and ties become common in non-western societies? I see pictures of leaders in non-Western societies (Xi Jinping, Shinzo Abe, etc) wearing suits and ties.
