Quotes by Richard Thompson Ford (?)

“Ironically, dress codes that require modesty can eroticize the boundary between permissible and illicit, encouraging lust rather than preventing it. Concealment contains the timeless allure of forbidden fruit.”
― Richard Thompson Ford, Dress Codes: How the Laws of Fashion Made History

“Whenever someone chooses her attire with care and purpose and wears it with confidence and conviction, it is a small victory for human flourishing.”
― Richard Thompson Ford, Dress Codes: How the Laws of Fashion Made History

“It’s in this way that the mystique of preppy style has retained its staying power: anyone with the temerity to question it has, by his very skepticism, revealed himself as untutored, too dim to appreciate the heightened sensibilities of the blue-blooded. Preppies may feign offense at this description but they will in fact take none because their aspiration is neither stylishness nor beauty but exclusivity, which they brilliantly achieve.”
― Richard Thompson Ford, Dress Codes: How the Laws of Fashion Made History
