wear的基本意思是“穿”、“戴”，所以将wear well译成“穿得笔挺”似乎理所当然。但是wear和中文的“穿”、“戴”还是有所不同，除了衣服鞋帽外，还可以有其他宾语（wear不能译成“穿”、“戴”）：

当然wear也可以是不及物动词，意为“磨损”或“经久耐用”，如：The cloth won’t wear.（这种布不耐磨。）原句中的wear well应作“不显老”、“显得年轻”讲，所以应译成：史密斯先生一点也不显老/保养得很好。不过wear用做及物动词也可表示此意：Mr.Smith wears his age/his years well.当然也可用其他句型，如：Mr.Smith doesn’t look his age.（Mr.Smith looks younger than his real age.则太直，不是最佳选择。）至于“史密斯先生穿得笔挺”可译为：Mr.Smith is well dressed.
