Clothing

I had my usual reaction to Parshat Tetzaveh (Exodus 28) today in shul: The message is that clothing is important, and that seems to be true.  The work of the kohanim must be done in proper clothing; how could it be otherwise?

Clothing should be something that reflects what you intend to do in it.  Clothing should match a person's personality.  And if one is in touch with one's personality, it should be easy to find the right clothing.

Shouldn't it.  Just like the kohanim.  

Thank you very much to the clothing industry for undermining this simple and potentially graceful and expressive part of human life.  Thanks a ton.
