The phenomenon of Dandyism has always promoted self-esteem through style, for the men and women excessively concerned with their appearance. A Dandy would never leave the house without a quick spritz of cologne, without a quick shave\u00a0and certainly not unless he or she was immaculately dressed.<br \/>\nAlthough Oscar Wilde might be the one who springs to mind when thinking about a dapper gallant, Dandyism is as relevant today as ever before. With David Bowie pioneering eccentricity in tailoring throughout his stylish life, many 21st century beaus have since followed suit. From America to Africa to Asia, Dandyism is still very much a thing, and now thanks to an upcoming release from Gestalten, us normcore folk can take a peek into the lives and wardrobes of the best-dressed gentlemen in town.<br \/>\nScheduled to launch this month, \u201cWe Are Dandy\u201d surveys young Dandies and the old school, chronicling not only their dress, but the stories behind their interest in the clothes and lifestyle. Beautiful portraits are set against fascinating backdrops, all accompanied by witty texts. Further, the smart layout and font both compliment the features perfectly.<br \/>\nAiming to portray \u201cthe outer expression of their inner selves&#8221;, the brains behind the project have been involved in the historical and contemporary Dandy movement for years. Photographer Rose Callahan started up \u201cThe Dandy Portraits\u201d blog in 2008, and shortly after, met journalist, Nathaniel \u201cNatty\u201d Adams. Callahan\u2019s visual documentation of the culture, combined with the wealth of knowledge Adams picked up through his years of travelling and recording it, has resulted in \u201cWe Are Dandy\u201d \u2013 an authentic and informed account of a subculture many might not realise is still prominent.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40636\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/We-Are-Dandy_6.jpg\" alt=\"Mr. Christopher Sharrock\" width=\"1300\" height=\"839\" \/> Mr. Christopher Sharrock<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40635\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/We-Are-Dandy_5.jpg\" alt=\"Mr. Mark Haldeman &amp;
