Meaningless in the context of an outfit - not necessarily whether the garment itself may have meaning to someone. You may surely be in possession of a couple of random trinkets of great historic significance but if you just mesh them all together into one outfit you might simply end up with a mess on your hands. A garment may well be the centerpiece of an outfit - but it is ultimately always the combination that is important.
Im sure you've seen examples of this yourself - you can absolutely sport a Ray Ban in good taste and you've almost surely seen someone believe themselves to be fashionable because they are wearing a Ray Ban.
Also, I'm not suggesting fashion as a whole is about combing outfits - merely that being able to combine varying pieces of clothing into a cohesive whole is an expression of good taste.
