Advanced style may not come easy, but you know it when you see it. From Rose Callahan’s upcoming book, “I Am Dandy, the Return of the Elegant Gentleman.”
Excerpt:
"The natural question at this point is: where does one go next– after the mechanics of suiting are understood and the spirit of dressing well is globally known?
Taking a cue from Rose Callahan’s book “I am Dandy”, when we come into our element in terms of dressing well, it is then that we can scale the wall of freedom and unique self-expression…forgetting about boundaries and instead shifting towards the sphere of intuitive dressing. Yes, ” First learn the rules, and then break them” could not be more freely applied at this point of progression.
But as we tap into our creativity in the way that we dress, we notice that there are two types of creativity:
* creativity for the sake of creativity, or
* creativity that expresses an inner emotion.
Creativity for the sake of creativity can become a sad affair when dressing becomes more of a dog-and-pony show, rather than an act of sincere expression.
