We are Dandy at Fine and Dandy Shop NYC

WeAreDandy_FineAndDandy_Dec1
Thanks to my good friends Matt Fox and Enrique Crame III of Fine and Dandy Shop for hosting a fabulous book signing party for We are Dandy on Dec 1! It was a wonderful kick off to the holiday season. Among the many dashing party-goers were Nicolas Pron and Kamau Hosten, both featured in the book. We nearly sold out (yay!) but I think there are still a few signed copies left. 
This is the ONLY place to get signed copies before Christmas!

We are Dandy NYC Book Launch, Part 2 at The Armoury

WEAREDANDY_Nov2016_jkratochvil_5210_lores
We are Dandy has officially LAUNCHED!
The New York City launch was a one-two punch: part 1 was "Dine with the Dandies" hosted by Modern Luxury, and part 2 was the glorious book signing party you see here
hosted by Mark Cho at his exquisite store The Armoury in Tribeca.

Thank you to everyone who celebrated with me and Natty! It was a rare moment to stop and feel proud of all the hard work. And what a great turn out! I enjoyed looking out into the crowd and seeing so many people I adore with such individual style. We had several of the dandies profiled in We are Dandy join us as honored guests, and the rest of the international roster were with us in spirit. We also had many I am Dandy book subjects with us too!

Special thanks to the great crew at The Armoury, our sponsors Modern Luxury, St Germain with Marlo Gamora, and Smooth Ambler with Lauren Barden.

Did you wonder who was that man in the bear skin? It was Baron Ambrosia, aka Justin Fornal. His profile in We are Dandy is bound to surprise you...and not in the way you'd expect (hint: it's better than a bear skin story).
