Tall and spare, Tesla moves with the restless energy of someone always half-turned toward the next idea. His curly brown hair falls in a neat part at the front, framing a face that’s more intent than handsome. He favors formal dress: a crisp white shirt, black tie, and waistcoat, offset by khaki trousers and sturdy boots. A long coat completes the look—its left hem finished in a surprising black netting that hints at both practicality and eccentric taste.
