The knack gentlemen have of dressing badly and getting away with it is best illustrated by the story of the gentleman who was accosted by a friend walking along Piccadilly in clothes which were well below the best sartorial standards.
'It does not matter how I dress in London,' he claimed. 'Nobody here knows me.'
Later the same friend visited him in the country where his clothes were no better.
'It does not matter how I dress here', he said, 'Everybody knows me.'
