i have decided i would like to be a dandy. i am moving to tucson on friday and when i get there i am joining their audubon society immediately.

it's mostly because their badge is so cool.

Tilda Swinton can be a dandy anytime she likes, and I'll still think she's nothing less than lovely.

who else is a dandy?

cindy williams permafrost (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 12 May 2005 07:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Contemporary female dandies off the top of my head: Vivienne Westwood, Bjork, Isabella Blow, Missy Elliot,

wasn't there a female dandy in that 'tipping the velvet' program that was on last year?

they can be Mandy or Sandy or Andy, they can come in handy when you're randy, and some taste like candy if you give them shandy. But no, a woman may not be a dandy.

Whyever *can't* a woman be a Dandy? There was a time when I would have liked to be one, but now I'm too old and fat and ugly and have to make do with wearing giant earrings like a Hampstead Divorcee.

Female dandies appear to be a mid-century phenomenon.

Does "Dandy" necessarily entail flaunting gender roles? I think that therefore it is harder to be a female dandy than a male. Because so much of male dress is so... drab! Maybe if I strutted around in a frock coat. Actually, I'm liking that idea! Where can I get a frock coat?

The Square Root Of Negative Two (kate), Thursday, 12 May 2005 11:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh dear, I just searched 'frock coat' on Ebay and look what came up.

I need more pictures of female dandies and female dandydom, please!
