Right Dress: Success Through Better Grooming, published in 1955 by A.S. Barnes and Company, is a 125-page guide for men written by fashion authority Bert Bacharach. Illustrated by Norman Garbo and Jesse Washington, the book offers advice on selecting appropriate clothing, when to wear specific attire, and grooming tips.
Key Details and Themes
Purpose: The book focuses on the psychology of clothing, arguing that proper attire and grooming lead to success and better self-confidence.
Style Philosophy: Bacharach advises avoiding extremes—such as overly tight "Ivy League" styles or heavily padded shoulders—in favor of a balanced, flattering, and conservative look.
Content: The guide covers buying accessories, care of clothing, and tips for maintaining a well-groomed appearance.
