The vintage dandy shaking up Goodwood
Say “era” to most millennials and they will think of a Taylor Swift album, but in Dandy Wellington’s world it is the Jazz Age, and it never went out of style. Pass him on the street and you might assume, from his glamorous attire, that he was in period costume. He’d say he doesn’t need an excuse to dress up.

Meet the Vintage Menswear Aficionado Who Can Teach You How to Nail Your Personal Style
by Courtney Lichterman | 2021
What modern style aficionado hasn’t admired the graceful curves of a 1920s spectator shoe or the ramrod-straight shoulders of a 1940s dinner jacket and lamented that their generation had sartorially missed out? Instead of bemoaning that fact, musician, event producer and self-described “style activist,” Dandy Wellington has decided to make the past come to him, dressing exclusively in vintage clothing, whether at the dancehall or the dentist.
