This week, I decided to create a new column presenting contemporary dandies.To inaugurate this column, Johann, 21 year old, studying business in France, and at Central St Martins - the British famous school of design - who shares his time between Rouen, London and the most beautiful city of the world, Paris. ;-)
Could you introduce yourself?
Polymorphic but coherent, a miracle-worker but human, polite but crude, curious but serious, decadent but smart, passionate but reconciling, so simple but so sophisticated! A living paradox, that’s what I am.
Who are your favourite designers?
Gaultier because he is more than a talented designer, he is also a marketing genius. Galliano because it is obvious. Lagerfeld because elegance has a name, and its name is Karl.
Where could we meet you in Paris?
Everywhere in Paris! With a slight preference for the 6 first districts…
At night, you might see me at the Cab, the VIP, the Pershing Hall, in the Costes restaurants & bars, and in small French typical restaurants full of charm.
What is the ‘dandy attitude’ according to you?
Great clothing, culture, elegance and above all sobriety! One can be himself, have strong personality, but nobility is the daughter of humility. If you are elegant, you should not have to prove it, it has to be evident and natural.
What do you think of our dandy of the week? ;-)
Do you know contemporary dandies? Don't hesitate to send there pictures to urbandandy at hotmail.fr
