I'm not a very observant person, and I didn't really notice what he was wearing, but yes, I guess you could say it was dapper--certainly not jeans and a t-shirt. I think he was wearing a white shirt and pressed pants. BUT--one reason I didn't notice his clothes much is because he's tall and very good-looking. His hair and neatly trimmed moustache--not a bushy one but a nice one--are dark with a touch of gray here and there. He has a nice voice and a very slight accent which he says is Italian, though it sounded to me more like German, which is why I asked about it. But it turns out that he did live in Germany--at least I think that's what he says. I'm not sure how many years. Carrie speaks German, and though Guido said he didn't speak it well, they carried on a short conversation about that. Jim, too, is tall and good-looking.
