Agreed on everything. When you really begin to "dress to impress" on a regular basis, you almost find it to be a new lifestyle that you've embarked on. When I'm on location at various businesses, it's assumed by many that I'm the business owner. The employees have even used me (saying I'm their boss) as a good excuse to chase problem customers away, such as unwanted advances, etc. I've had job offers out of the blue, since it tends to reflect your level of capability. There are a majority of women around me since we work with retailers, and it never hurts to have a reputation as being handsome and well dressed. But I also make sure that folks know I'm down to earth. One thing you'll want to avoid, is anyone assuming that you're a snob. If or when it's appropriate, I make sure they understand that I do so enjoy a more classic, gentlemanly style. But it's also a good form of manners, 'cause I like to dress properly to be in THEIR company. Become the very best version of yourself guys, in all respects. It's so worth it.

I think jeans, t-shirts, ball caps and sneakers have their place. I simply echoed Ash on the affect of dressing well has on others, and their is a marked difference.If you think how you dress and present yourself isn't a major factor in the impression you make, then you are fooling yourself.This sounds like your own reflected insecurities. No where did I say I wouldn't spend time with someone in trainers. That's from your own insecure head. I dress well because it makes me feel good, and it does have a notable social effect. If you want to dress down that's your business, but as Ash said this is a channel for well-dressed men, so what exactly do you expect here? As far as my life: I found time to get two Ivy League degrees, raise two children, launch a successful career and still found time to learn how to dress myself in a gentleman's manner. It can be done. As far as women are concerned, Ive never had a problem in that area. I'm glad I repulse you 'madam', as I'd have no interest in someone with such low self-esteem, chips of insecurity on their shoulder, and such a fragile little ego.

Hey, loved your video. But to me, I personally think having a pair of shined shoes is almost just as important as wearing a suit if not more. I've saw many people who wear suits at weddings, or just as I walk across city centre. Yes they look good, but their shoes are often unpolished or in some cases dirty. This rule when applies to people who wear trainers, most People who do wear trainers don't bother to clean to them properly. The best way I distinguish someone who is well dressed to someone who "believes" they are well dressed is either A. They have shined shoes, B. The trainer's they wear are clean to the point they almost look brand new. Most people underestimate how cleaning trainers properly rather than just using a wet rag to clean them. Really does bring life back into the trainer's.

I agree on many points. First, good clothing of a timeless style is an investment, one that pays back in the depth of time and money. Back in the late 1970s a book called DRESS FOR SUCCESS came out, and I bought a three-piece suit of conservative cut for what was a good amount of money. I wore that suit for nearly 22 years before I essentially wore it out. My shirts came from THE CUSTOM SHOP here in the USA, and while they cost about five times a cheap shirt, they wore like iron, and showed a great deal more style as they were of a serious design. Very cost-effective. And beautifully tailored, perfect fit, great attention to detail. As for other pieces, I have found shoes, one pair black-and-white wingtips, for example, for $6 in my size, fit perfect. Within the last two years I have purchased three pair of shoes in black, brown, oxblood in VERY expensive style, for $6 each at a local resale/charity shop. I confess I had used my 30% seniors discount...but still...$6 each? Really? I have found very nice shirts for $5, fresh from a professional laundering, still on the hangers. THESE ARE OUT THERE. Two years ago I outfitted a friend who got a job as a Cadillac salesman, equipping him with three tweed jackets, two silk shirts, a nice selection of ties and four pair pleated pants for less than $80...and tailoring cost him less than $30 to get the pants and one jacket hemmed. HAUNT resale shops. CRUISE charity shops. FORAGE yard and estate sales. PUT UP "WANTED" cards in stores that allow such things....if you don't ask, you'll never know what you can find. I have even found men's clothing that was virtually free, as the woman selling them said she wanted to see someone she met wearing her husband's clothes, rather than see them go in some anonymous church jumble. BEST OF LUCK!

I utterly agree with your clothing ideology. I cannot afford many nice pieces for the wardrobe, but I aspire to wearing quality ites - the answer is to seek out the best items at prices that I can afford. By way of an example, I own about 10 shirts made by Turnbull & Asser (probably the best shirtmaker in the world). All these shirts have been sourced pre-owned from ebay and many have been in 'as new' condition. Never compromise, simply find another way to achieve your goals!!

I've received preferential treatment on trains, in shops, got seats in a restaurant whilst others have been turned away and generally treated with more courtesy. Great vid.

I know I'm very late into this video, but do you ever think that formal clothing will ever make a comeback? personally, I hope so, after all, casual clothing for everyday wear has been around for 50 or 40 years already. I think is only a matter of time that people get bored and sick of their everyday clothing.

Very uplifting advise. I difinetly agree with dressing well increase ones self appreciation and feeling good. The 3 piece suit you're wearing in this clip is beautiful, especially under the daylight. Could you in future clips show a full body shots? Even just for a few seconds. This could allow us, chaps starting their journey to dress amicably, to get ideas and tips on what goes well together. Thanks in advance.

People do judge a book by its covers - often subconsciously. Even pig... (sorry Ash😛)...I mean _police officers_ probably treat people differently if they are very well dressed and well groomed. (Obviously nobody is getting away with murder - but all things being equal...)

Very true! If I may say, being well dressed and more importantly, being well mannered helps greatly when interacting with the law. I know from experience.

Your absolutely correct. Criminals often dress like criminals and immediately telegraph their intentions to those who are observant. Just judging people on how they dress has saved me more than once in the streets

You liked my Dunhill shop monopoly experience. I have another I thought you would like. 42 years ago I lived in London and worked as a sales rep for Carreras Rothmans. We sold Dunhill brand cigarettes. We were given 10,000 cigarettes a month as samples. I needed a lighter. I was directed to the Dunhill Shop in central London. This is where I saw the Monopoly sets. I chose a rectangular (50mm high x 12mm wide) 18 carat gold, flip top lighter, with red onyx insert panels on either side. Very nice. Rothmans we’re paying the bill, so that suited me fine. However. I wanted this engraved with my name. I had to pay for this. The assistant said. £93 engraving sir. I replied ..no...I can have this done for around £25 at a jewelry store. He replied “ sir...here we engrave...there they scratch”. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Never get a second chance....to make a first impression. My father was a executive for IBM Corp. Headquartered in NYC. as a young man I asked him what do you look for when hiring new people? He said all the people that come to me are very intelligent great academics...but I look for someone who will get along as a team and works well with others. Many intelligent people are loners and that isn't the best when it comes to a work force and people with new ideas. Getting on with each other for 8 hrs a day is very important.

Hi, Sir! I want to thank you for this amazing video! this one motivated personality and i feel better now! keep going and I wish you success in your work. I am 20 years old and I really like the so-called good dressing, of course, the material side is also excessively involved in a particular issue, but it is not necessary to wear a branded jacket or pants.

There’s a story told by Stephen fry in his autobiography which deals with what Ash is saying in the opposite way. When Stephen was in the Gracho gentleman’s club, a man dressed in ragged rough clothes, sporting a rough beard and not looking too well kept walked into the main entrance. The receptionist didn’t know how to get rid of him, as he clearly looked like he didn’t belong there, so rushed off the get the managers. The manager greets the man with a friendly “hello Mr Pacino, researching a role for another film?”. I guess dressing the part gets treated the part, either way.
