The crew from @thearmourynyc classing up the joint. I photographed Jim, Jan, Mark, and Dick for the Armoury’s “Guide to Black Tie” with tips from Bruce Boyer and more about this deceptively simple ensemble (hint: it’s all about the details, as usual). God I love formalwear, is that so wrong? #blacktie #formalwear #thearmourynyc #markcho @markchodotcom @mrjantleman @dick.carroll @jimrparker
What is your style signature? For Mr @ign.joseph it’s his red shoes. For Iris Apfel it’s her big round glasses. For Bill Cunningham it was his blue French chore jacket. For Joey Ramone it was the mass of curls and leather jacket. I love how people develop these iconic looks, and I wonder what mine is becoming. 👩🏻‍🎨🕵🏻‍♀️🧛🏻‍♀️ For my #menswear friends in the Netherlands please join Ignatious Joseph for TWO #WeAreDandy book events: ▶️Dec 15 at @shoesandshirts_official boutique in #Maastricht ▶️ Dec 16 with @jan_duppen at #CharlainHerenmode in #Weert ▶️ Swipe to see both announcement and details. #dandyportraits #iamdandy #menofstyle #dutchmenswear

“Astound me!” The clarion call to posers everywhere uttered by @petertmcg when @nattyadams was interviewing him for #IamDandy book. Being “astounding” is no small feat, nor should we do it to please him, but we should strive to do it none the less. ⚜️ Enjoy this new 10 image re-edit of my portrait of the legendary artist #PeterMcGough in his home filled with art and gorgeous vintage #artdeco details, including some previously unpublished images. ⚜️ Peter is famously one half of the artistic duo #McDermottAndMcGough, and I highly recommend reading up on the life and work of McDermott and McGough if you are not familiar. #DavidMcDermott famously said “I’ve seen the future and I’m not going.”
@nattyadams interviewing @petertmcg for #IamDandy ✍🏼 What times we’ve had! Natty is in Baltimore these days (all for his lady) but he’s visiting NYC again soon to meet with his custom suit clients...and he’ll do my first fitting for my lady tux jacket! Midnight blue velvet 🙉 #NattyAdams #ladysuit #customtailoring #ladytux #wearedandy
A pleasure to shoot @markchodotcom for @therakejapan ⚜️ Don’t let his youthful looks fool you! #MarkCho is at the helm of the @thearmourynyc and @thearmouryhk menswear empire. Having spent a lot of time recently at the Armoury and with Mark, I’ve come to feel welcome by him and his talented crew. ▶️Check out our BTS at @clubmacanudonyc with fabulous journalist @yshasegawa and @rmdahdah, and some of the printed layout- yay for print! ⚜️ Thanks to Yoshimi for the collaboration, kindness, and hard work, and to @kentarinomazzo Editor in Chief of #theRakeJapan ⚜️ #thearmoury #thearmourynyc #newyorkstyle #nycmenswear #menswear #therake @therake #bespoke #luxurymenswear
I’ll be swinging around the @metopera tonight photoing for @lastnightatthemet SO, YEAH WEAR THAT CRAZY THING. You know, the fantastic hat/dress/shoes/tie/boa that makes you feel a bit too...extra? Just think of the red velvet walls of the #MetOpera - they need your eye candy! @highheelpaws and @dandywellington have a romantic spin as they leave the show 💃🏻🕺🏾#neveroverdressed #bebold #lastnightatthemet #lnatm #dandywellington #dandystyle #truevintage #vintagestylenotvintagevalues #isntitromantic #datenight #couplegoals #operastyle #lincolncenter
Divya @gotham_taxidermy the glamorous taxidermist ✨ at the @odditiesfleamarket
I took exactly one frame of @dick.carroll at @thearmourynyc as I was setting up to make portraits of the shop's visiting artisans for an upcoming series. I will undoubtedly take more next time! I asked him what the three biggest influences on his style have been: "northern soul, french new wave, British invasion" Soul Wave Invasion? Ok you heard it here first.😉 #soulwaveinvasion #dickcarroll #richardcarroll #thearmourynyc #menofstyle #styleandcharacter
A favorite new shoot for @therakejapan of @rmdahdah at his beautiful home in Manhattan. SWIPE ▶️ for all the fabulous details (OMG his dressing room!). Thanks to @yshasegawa @markchodotcom @kentarinomazzo
Delighted to share a peek at my first feature for @therakejapan! It explores how menswear afficionados like #BruceBoyer define New York style. What a pleasure to work with journalist and author @yshasegawa! Photographed by me on location at @j.mueser Special thank you to @kentarinomazzo 🙏
Hope you're all warm n toasty ✨With @kellfire from a few weeks back.

We all need to take a moment to bow down to this badass boss lady 💪🏾 Monique Hawkins @1_innovativestyle photographed by me at @thevintageshow 📷 I'll be back again making portraits at the next show in Feb! #thevintageshow #badass #bosslady #rarebirdofstyle #blackgirlmagic #advancedstyle
@kellfire and I had the honor and pleasure of having our portraits painted by the incredibly talented @carlgrauer today at the @theotherartfair 🎨 What a fabulous thing to experience! This is part on his ongoing #twohourportraits project, which he says he will continue do for the rest of his life. Sitting for the two hours, having my likeness examined was a very interesting meditation that I highly recommend! Especially because Carl is such a kind and thoughtful person.
Night views ✨ @elisabeth__o playing pool, or maybe doing the dishes? No, playing pool. But I think she might look just as glamorous at the kitchen sink.
Boss lady @chapeaug continues to amaze me with her sharp style ⚡️ That vest!! ⚡️ From my set of style portraits from @thevintageshow Check out their website for full gallery! ⚡️ #gretchenfenston #thevintageshow #truevintage #ladydandy #muse #rarebirdofstyle #fallcolors #1930s #1940s

Delighted to meet @debimazar when she dropped by with @syriem at @thevintageshow ➡️ Debi wore the most beautiful hat from @tolentinohatsofficial with a fabulous cape and menswear inspired wide-legged trousers.
