Fine And Dandy

Men's fashion has surged back into the mainstream with reality shows and fashion blogs celebrating the well-dressed man.  Men with that kind of sartorial savvy were once called "dandies".

The history, sociology, and craftsmanship behind some of the world's most famous dandies are now on display at the Rhode Island School of Design, in a new exhibition called "Artist/Rebel/Dandy: Men of Fashion."
