輕鬆日記商務職場篇 第112期:人靠衣裝

核心句型：
Clothes make the man.
人靠衣裝。
clothes make the man直譯過來就是：“衣服造就了一個人”，這個短語的正確意思是：“人是要靠衣服來打扮的，人靠衣裝”。因此，當美國人說"Clothes make the man."時，他/她要表達的意思就是:"The tailor makes the man."、"Clothes make a man just as a saddle makes a horse."、"Fine feathers make fine birds."。
情景對白：

Shirley: Honey, formal clothes are necessary. After all, clothes make the man.
雪莉：穿正裝是必要的。畢竟，人靠衣裝嘛。
