dandy
The term Dandy came mid-18th to the early 19th century and named after Friedrich Kluges etymological dictionary "young people who visit in a conspicuous clothing church or fair". In contrast to the Macaroni who tries to imitate the fashion of the southern countries, the Beau or its German counterpart, the dandy, the British Dandy abhors everything Flash, lute, Perfumed. He's an occasional snob. He cultivates his clothes, his appearance, also wit and Bonmot. The original, but always appropriate, elegant clothes for sports, combined with the perfectly shaped manners of a gentleman, is elevated to the single purpose in life. The lowlands of strenuous work, on the other hand, do not fit into the metropolitan, blown, real dandy. Famous representatives were Beau Brummell, Beau Nash, Charles Baudelaire, Lord Byron, Giacomo Casanova, the Fürst Hermann von Pückler-Muskau, Benjamin Disraeli, later also the representatives of aestheticism as Ernst Jünger, Oscar Wilde, Aubrey Beardsley, James McNeill Whistler, Max Beerbohm and Nicolaus Sombart. One of the most famous dandies of the 20th century.
