Rose Callahan
Brooklyn-based photographer Rose Callahan has made a career out of traveling the world, taking character-filled portraits of fancy men. Her subjects consider themselves dandies, gentlemen who express themselves through their formal style.
“The Dandy Portraits began in early 2008 as I started to meet gentlemen who had exceptional personal style. Their extreme elegance seemed to be the present day expression of the Dandy. With each new portrait comes more curiosity, and the realization that a true dandy is a rare thing indeed.” -Rose Callahan
You can check out Callahan’s work on her blog, and her most recent book can be purchased on Amazon.

I love a dandified gentleman and always remember to compliment them on their hat, cravat or whatever. That has brightened up my day!

These men are all so dapper and I think the thing that makes each of their looks so successful is that they wear their clothes with such self-assurance. I admit I get a bit skeeved out about having bare feet inside leather shoes but otherwise I think they all look fabulous.
