A few years ago I was at an organic farming meeting and I was talking to this chap in yellow cords,brown leather brogues,smart jacket,check shirt and tie.
He was the epitome of the gentleman farmer and in conversation acted as such, telling me it was a very large farm etc,until I asked him how long the farm had been in the family.
He then said "Oh,I'm the manager,there's the owner."
A long haired bloke in a scruffy pullover full of holes and ancient creased trousers got out of this really old battered rusty Cavalier.
Ever so well spoken but not in an affected way and obviously old money as they say up here in Norfolk,and he did not have a tie wrapped around his neck.
You can never judge 'em by the clothes.

Edited to add I'm not an instructor but fascinated by the topic!
