A dream of New Jersey

So Parisians are an interesting breed, they adore things like eggs, mayonnaise, pulverized fish sandwiches, New York City, fashion and New Jersey. Yes, that New Jersey. So much so that they have created a suit which exudes its "characteristics" and written a small ode to it... 
 "Once upon a time in New Jersey, I discovered the way to mix the elegance of the night with the warmth of the day... To look and feel sexy all day long: from the fruit market to a candle light dinner. I can do pilates with it too. The 24 hours NEW JERSEY SMOKING." 

The mannequin in front of the platitude is wearing a jersey suit/tux (or as they call it, a smoking) with this weird spat like contraption thing (also jersey) at the bottom of the pant.  Oh, it has metallic stripes.

I don't see anyone in neo jersey wearing this to the fruit market or candle lit dinner.

Sorry Paris, you may have missed the mark.
