Thanks to Glenn Wiggins of the False Image Podcast for dropping by to ask me (and Kelly!) about my work and our work together and letting me give very long answers! When we met Glenn after the Advanced Style Older and Wiser book launch we invited him along with us to see Dandy Wellington at his weekly show and had a good time talking about his love of in depth stories about people's lives. He was seeking to find the details about how certain achievements happen...the missing links that people often just gloss over in the story of "oh I was just making my own clothes and then Anna Wintour called me up!", etc, etc. I share this fascination. So if you ever wanted to know more about my story...here is an hour long conversation! (My mother will love it!)

A Dandy Talk - Save The Date, Oct 5, 2012

I can't tell you how delighted I was to be asked by David Zyla, Chair of the National Arts Club Fashion Committee, to speak about The Dandy Portraits and dandyism along with a few of my closest colleagues next month.
Please save the date of Friday, October 5, 2012. The talk will be from 6-8pm and undoubtedly cocktails and hob-nobbing will ensue afterwards.
This is a super special event for me, in such a fantastic location...so I would love to see all of you!
Portraits de Dandys
Dandy Magazine, a French publication, recently did an article on me, and when I received the copy I was blown away at how beautiful it was printed. Gorgeous. Also, my name is on the cover (!) - yep, lower right. Of course I immediately put the text thru google translate, which was hilarious. Must learn French. {UPDATE: see Nathan's translation below!}
Soooo, they asked me to send over a few more portraits for the next issue also! Look out for upcoming issues, which also include articles by my friend Hugo Jacomet of Parisian Gentleman.
Dandyism.net Interview
They called me "Wild Dandyish Rose", which I kind of like. Thanks to Mr. Mattis for his interest in the project and the opportunity to state my case in praise of exquisite gentlemen.

Le Noeud Papillon interviews me!

I was interviewed by Nicholas Atgemis of Le Noeud Papillon, who makes beautiful silk bow ties and men's accessories. If you ever had questions about the project (Who was the hardest person to convince to be part of The Dandy Portraits?) this may be a good read :)
