The Garb-instinct is that element of human nature which causes the sensuous and unintentional expression and blossoming of the soul. It manifests itself in clothing, in fine raiment, in personal adornment, in vanity and pretension, in coats of arms, titles, pedantry, insolence, subtle impertinence, excessive ceremony, fashion, and a thousand other shapes.
