"It is hard to don a nicely tailored suit with a stylish tie and nice shoes and show up someplace without experiencing a bit of a lift." -- I can atest to that. I have a gray suit, horrible stuff, but whenever I use it, I certainly feel more stylish.
One of the worst teachers I ever had dressed extremely sharp.
He was emotionally immature, intellectually aggressive, often demeaning students ideas with harsh mocking criticisms. It was an introduction to Greek philosophy class, and many of the students were out of their depth and struggling. He came to class late every day, and kept us past time, another exercise of his power I suspected. I think his dress was definitely a tool to help him feel superior, feeling superior seemed to his M.O. Just a strange episode from my past that occurred to me when I was reading your post.
