OverDressed for Life

Dressing is not important, but it is one of the little signs of respect.

Bernard-Henri Levy – French writer, philosopher, filmmaker.

This quote if from an article about Levy in the New York Times, February 28, 2023.

Levy is known for wearing bespoke suits with a white unbuttoned dress shirt to war zones in Ukraine, where he has been filming his documentary Slava Ukraini. This quote is his response to the question – why do you wear suits to a war zone?

Indeed, dressing well is a sign of respect for one another.
