Quote
...the mailroom man must always make a good impression. In fact, it is impossible for an ambitious young apprentice to be too well dressed. Dress at all times as though you were attending an informal weeding or tea dance: conservative--but well-cut--lounge suit, the best white linen, carefully knotted four-in-hand Sulka or Countess Mara, and good well-boned boots.
Shepherd Mead, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, 1952 which is still a very funny read, written by a man who worked in advertising, and wait for next week on what the young executive should wear. Sulka no longer exists as a firm, Countess Mara does make ties still but is no longer exclusive.
