Lijkt me een amusant boek over kleurrijke figuren. Maar de titel en ondertitel (je kan aardig wat van de foto's in 't boek online vinden) zijn inderdaad slecht gekozen.
LF: “Attention please! Attention please! Look at me!”
CC: What’s the matter?
LF: There’s no dandies in here. The title is “I Am Dandy.”
CC: I see. Well how exactly should a dandy look?
LF: Simple. Sophisticated. Mature. Perfect fit.
CC: Thank you.
LF: These guys are like rock stars, gangsters or characters in a movie, but they’re not dandy.
CC: Interesting.
LF: I like the anime characters, though.
CC: The what?
LF: They’re fun. I can imagine characters in movies. But they’re not real. Why is he wearing so many rings?
CC: That’s a good question.
LF: They’re enjoying fashion and I’m so happy to see that. These kinds of guys I really like. But are they elegant gentlemen? They’re like women.
CC: Not that there’s anything wrong with that…
LF: “Watch me. I’m wearing fancy clothing. I’m unusual. I’m special.” That’s the message I can hear from this book. If I don’t see the title I think, “What a fun book!” It’s like scenes from movies. They’re acting. They have their own special characters. At least they’re not boring.
CC: Well put.
LF: The accessories they have are really good. How can I find them?
CC: Another good question.
LF: I really love this teacup.
At least they’re not boring. Aldus een Japanse juffrouw die in #menswear zit.
