Stuffed shirt - meaning

A pompous windbag, who may well look as if he strains to do up his shirt in the mornings.
A habitual bore or fuddy duddy.

You are reckoned a success,
And the public praise you win;
There's your picture in the Press,
Pouchy eyes and triple chin.
Wealth,--of it you fairly stink;
Health,--what does your Doctor think?

- From 'To A Stuffed Shirt' by Robert Service.
