This meticulously choreographed look has a vibrant history; the legacy of Beau Brummell, the original dandy of Regency England, can be traced in the clothing of urban dandies today. \u003ci\u003eDandy Style\u003c\/i\u003e celebrates 250 years of male self-expression, investigating the portraiture and wardrobe of the fashionable British man. Combining fashion, art, and photography, the historic and the contemporary, the provocative and the respectable, it considers key themes in the development of male style and identity, including elegance, uniformity, and spectacle. Various types of dandy are represented by iconic figures such as Oscar Wilde, Edward VIII as Prince of Wales, and Gilbert \u0026amp; George. They appear alongside the seminal designs of Vivienne Westwood, Ozwald Boateng, and Alexander McQueen; and portraits by Thomas Gainsborough and David Hockney. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in association with Manchester Art Gallery \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eManchester Art Gallery\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (October 8, 2022-May 1, 2023)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shaun Cole\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 030025413X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300254136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.30h x 7.70w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShaun Cole\u003c\/b\u003e is associate professor in fashion at Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton. \u003cb\u003eMiles Lambert\u003c\/b\u003e is curator of costume at Manchester Art Gallery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shaun Cole","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44043409293567,"sku":"9780300254136","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_15c5cca8-dfb8-4079-afbb-458a6e4eb5b7.jpg?v=1684966980","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dandy-style-shaun-cole-9780300254136","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
