mr. blue

Blue is the West's favorite color. This is true despite gender, social origins, profession or cultural conditions. Blue dominates. In the Western world, blue in all its shades has been the most popular clothing color for decades. One of blue's essential characteristics in Western color symbolism is that it doesn't make waves, but is calm, peaceful, distant, almost neutral.

Didn't quite realize how blue was such a popular clothing color. Blue jeans alone comprise a big percentage of clothing.
