The way one dresses goes a long way into how people treat and address you. Though this should not be the case as all men, no matter who or what they are, should command respect. But the fact is that as humans, we are very visual people so we judge people based on how we see them. Naturally, anyone who dresses very well, wears good suits and shoes and carries himself well commands a lot of respect because we think he must be successful. After all who does not want to associate with success? But that may not be the case. I have met a number of persons who dress very well but are not really successful. Some are in fact drivers or Security men. On the other hand, there are some really successful men and women who do not dress the part. They look like cart pushers and truck drivers.
I think that we should all dress well no matter our station in life. Dressing well is not a matter of how much our clothes cost. One can always make a #500 shirt look like a million dollars just by how the shirt is worn and treated.
