Bruce Boyer photographed for @thearmourynyc ⚜️I’ve made portraits of Bruce many times over the years - always enjoying his sense of humor and kindness - but this is my favorite. He does look uncharacteristically serious, but I like how this shows him as “iconic” - how I think of him. ⚜️ #BruceBoyer #styleicon #menswearlegend #menswear #thearmourynyc #armourynyc #journalist #eminentlysuitable #truestyle #IamDandy #dandyportraits
Modern Merveilleuse @lindafargo a true style icon shared some candid moments with me at the incredible home of friends @jamesastyle @mwh265nyc at their holiday party. She’s wearing a one-of-a-kind hat with killer #veil gifted to her by @newyorkvintageinc ✨ ✨ ✨ #lindafargo #modernmerveilleuse #merveilleuse #muse #styleicon #bergdorfgoodman @bergdorfs #vintagekimono #bespokehat

Blade Running with my darling @kellfire
Expand the land inside your mind 🍄 Loved shooting these vintage #psychedelic looks for @thevintageshow! This is just a taste of the #groovy #truevintage looks they’ll have on exhibit Feb 1-2. I’ll be setting up my portrait studio again to capture all the stylin vintage lovers. 🍄 Model: @everydayfay Makeup: @michellecoursey Hair: @tak8133 Thanks to the super talented team and Amy of @wildfellhall for the great work!
If you are going to fall, fall big on the steps of the @metopera 💋 @syriem was not hurt in the making of this shot for @lastnightatthemet, just a brave a creative friend who was happy to crawl around for me. Here’s to all the creative partners in crime 🎉🍾 Happy New Year🍾
In a snowstorm some other winter @kellfire grabs a candelabra and heads out into the fresh powder in his night shirt and sock garters just to feel the beauty of it all. I didn’t last very long out there (the hijinx went on for a while, there was a half frozen creek, etc), but the crazy sparkle in his eyes is just one of the reasons why I love this man so much. Life is a beautiful adventure with him. ✨
Doctor Zhivago realness with my dear friends @nattyadams and @harper_sara ❄️ It’s Natty’s birthday on Tues (I think someone else’s birthday too 🧐) and he’ll be opening a brick and mortar shop for his custom suits in Baltimore in the new year - so follow along with him to see what’s in “store”! #nattyadams #wearedandy #iamdandy #customsuits #customtailor #customclothier #baltimoremenswear
It would have been impossible NOT to get Charlie (the puppy) involved in this portrait of @thesartorialist and @jennymwalton #scenestealer Photographed by me for @therake latest issue ✨ #thesartorialist #sartorialist #scottschuman #jennywalton #therake #rakeoftheyear
The maestro Yamamoto-san of @tailorcaid photographed for @therakejapan for feature by @yshasegawa. Fascinating to watch his focus while doing a customer fitting at @thearmourynyc ! Very happy to finally get opportunity to photograph this #debonair man! #tailorcaid #yuheiyamamoto #rakejapan #armourynyc #ivystyle #madmenstyle #japanesebespoke
The eyes of Marchesa Casati where echoing in my thoughts as I clicked the shutter on this portrait of @vintage_egyptologist 👁👁 I love the menagerie of eras in her look - #20s bob, classical Greek drapery on her #70s #BillGibb gown, and even ancient Egypt is referenced in her dark kohl eyes - just check out her post for the fascinating details. Not surprising that for an Egyptologist all things lead back to Egypt! ⚜️ #vintageegyptologist #colleendarnell #rarebirdofstyle #muse #styleportrait #marchesacasati #luisacasati #vintagecouture #truevintage
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
