It is not useful at all. Some suggestions are considered common sense.
Good read for anyone looking for a light read with good insight on needing to know how to dress for various occassions.
This book is a quick read, funny, and makes a great gift, especially for young people starting out.There are several editions by John Bridges and Bryan Curtis, buy whichever is cheapest.
Bought this to help with a very busy spring schedule. The book served me and my oldest son very well through 1 prom (his),a outdoor wedding (my niece) and his graduation.
Great book that helps you review simple things to make you more gentleman like. A good quick read, that helps you remember little things to be more gentleman like.
Very useful book to remember the dos and don'ts of what to wear. Sprinkled with a lot of humor throughout too.

The triumphant and unostentatious stroll of Rutledge Press' 'Gentlemanners' series continues with this 2003 guide to a gentleman's kit.There is nothing over the top or self-indulgent in these pages, just light-hearted advice for those of us who need a little help avoiding a fashion emergency.
Flusser's "Dressing the Man" is vastly superior in terms of both content and comprehensiveness. Generally speaking, I found the "Gentelemen" book series to be either common sense or just plain wrong.
I bought this for my husband (the dapper clothes horse) just because I saw it in my Gold Box. He is a strict adherent to Flusser, so I took a risk and ordered this because it was low priced.
This book is both helpful and entertaining. Its style, which amounts to a compilation of aphorisms--some of them clever--makes it an easy read.
