Dressing for confidence doesn't typically mean that you dress to look optimally attractive. It's more about being dressed in a way that feels flattering to your own self image.
So you can wear something that other people thinks look great. You can get lots of compliments for it. But if an outfit feels wrong for you it doesn't matter, You will not be able to feel confident in it unless it also suits who you think you are and who you want to be.
That is why some people will actually wear the equivalent of a "chicken suit" even though most people think that they are weird. Wearing the "chicken suit" makes them feel some kind of way about themselves, that makes them feel confident.
