Imposingly tall, with a fine blonde goatee, Feneon cut a
dandyish, even diabolical figure through Paris.
A pair of slippers might seem impossibly
dandyish, but hear me out: if Prince William can get away with velvet slippers with black tie, so can you.
Their
dandyish clothes, coiffured hairstyles and lipstick didn't really endear them to the boys, but they were massively popular among the ladies.
Miller resembles a type on the far right that is more common in Europe than the US: young, slick, sharp-suited, even a trifle

The portrayal of Ismael-an upper-class boy who is driven to school in a private car and who protects the vulnerable Sebastian-as relatively

By introducing external content--from language and expressions to household sundries--into her canvases in a jarring, almost offensive way, Feinstein sets her oeuvre against the essentialist works of the Abstract Expressionist and Color Field painters, and apart from the legacy of
dandyish abstraction in the generation of Michael Krebber, et al.
Evelyn Waugh, perhaps heeding this example, documents the demise of Sebastian Flyte in Brideshead Revisited, not that of his grotesque, Mephistophelian
