Putin has been spotted wearing an Italian made Brioni jacket despite his condemnation of the West and Nato.
The hypocrite donned the £7,000 Western made suit during a talk on modern medical technologies in Moscow.
He raised his arm during the talk and by doing so foolishly revealed the Brioni label.
Brioni is an elite brand made in Italy, a country which is an influential member of Nato.
While Putin is allowed to wear the highest fashion from the western world, he has subjected other Russian officials to give up western goods.
This means they must now use inferior Russian cars, while Putin hides his lavish lifestyle from the rest of his country.

After all, he has many lavish palaces and a fleet of ocean-going private yachts.
Telegram channel Ne TV commented: ‘Putin talks about Nato’s desire to take over Russia, the corrupting influence of the West and the importance of import substitution in a Brioni suit from the Nato country of Italy.’
Putin is not the only dictator to channel a certain look after Kim Jong Un was spotted lounging around in a leather jacket puffing on a cigarette.
The carefully planned photo op was taken as he oversaw the test of a new surface-to-sea missile and visited a munitions factory.
The new missile, called Padasuri-6, or ‘Sea Eagle-6’, flew over the sea and hit its intended target.
