Quotation: The Dividing Line

"I've always thought, myself, that apart from such unspeakable solecisms as wearing white socks with dark suits, the one dividing line between the men and the boys in the art of wearing clothes is the avoidance of the exposure of a length of calf between sock-top and trouser-bottom when seated. But I suppose equal time should be afforded to that other glamour-gap, provided by any amount of visible shirting between the bottom of the vest and the top of the trousers."

-Arnold Gingrich, Toys of a Lifetime (1966)
