Clarke Gayford is embracing the fashion of fatherhood - replete in a cardigan sourced from a Gisborne op shop.
Gayford proudly accompanied Jacinda Ardern to this morning's press conference to introduce their new daughter Neve Te Aroha Ardern Gayford.
NZ's first man was attired in a grey button-up cardigan Ardern dubbed his "dad cardie" in a Facebook video she recorded after the press conference.
Ardern tells the camera: "Clarke got his dad cardie on, which means we're ready to go…there's nothing wrong with that dad cardie. Where did that come from again?," she asks Gayford.
