3.5

Dress is the first of the Three Virtues; (The Classic of Filial Piety says: 'If it is not the standard dress of the former kings, one does not dare to wear it; if it is not the virtuous conduct of the former kings, one does not dare to practice it; if it is not the standard speech of the former kings, one does not dare to utter it.' Among the three virtues, dress comes first; hence it is called 'the first.')
