Let’s get one thing straight. Clothes do not make the man . . . but they do make a difference. And regardless of whether we like the idea of appearances driving impressions, a man’s exterior often is perceived as an indicator of what’s happening on the interior.

Fortunately, tasteful and appropriate dressing doesn’t require inordinate amounts of time or money. Any man can hit the door in fine shape with only a little forethought and a bit of attention to a few guidelines. Never mind the heady cologne and designer labels. With a navy blazer, a good bar of soap, and a regular haircut regimen, he’ll be well on his way to becoming the guy who knows exactly how to suit up, regardless of the occasion. Most important, A Gentleman Gets Dressed Up illustrates how a man’s natural confidence and personality are the best foundation for any wardrobe.

让我们理清一件事。衣服并不代表男人......但它们确实有区别。不管我们是否喜欢以貌取人的想法，一个人的外表往往被认为是内部情况的一个指标。

幸运的是，有品位和适当的打扮不需要过多的时间或金钱。任何男人只要稍加考虑并注意一些准则，就能以良好的状态出场。不要在意那些令人陶醉的古龙水和设计师的标签。只要有一件海军西装外套，一块上好的肥皂，以及定期理发，他就可以成为一个无论在什么场合都知道如何穿戴的人。最重要的是，《君子好逑》说明了一个男人的自然自信和个性是任何衣柜的最佳基础。
