I appreciate that but I'll suggest that it sometimes gets to be almost obsessive behaviour for some people. There's a certain point after which dressing well or neatly becomes too time and money intensive and becomes more of an affectation than a characteristic. I've met more than one person who refers to their articles of clothing by the designer's name...my Armani, my Hugo Boss. This has become a cultural thing and I think that part of what Alan is trying to get across is that you shouldn't feel such pressure to meet some abstract standard that it makes you feel inadequate.
