I’m not against CARING HOW YOU LOOK. I’m against the view that caring how you look means you need to wear a suit or polo shirt and slacks or whatever the generic high-class look is.
There’s other ways to care, but as a rule successful people are more likely to be worth knowing than others, are more able to be picky with their class distinctions, and are thus most likely to be worth emulating. It’s not a universal strategy, but it’s a common enough one that it’s worth keeping it available.
