Dandy in the underworld

[imomus]

It's the last day, alas, of this Japan trip. Tomorrow I fly back to Berlin, and today I'm heading up to Kyoto to see Doddodo in concert. It's been a gorgeous six weeks, in which I've seen amazing sights and also tried to provide an amusing visual spectacle to my hosts, the people of the enchanted archipelago. Today, in retrospect and celebration, I'm offering a selection of the ludicrous outfits I've been wearing.




















Thank you, Japan! For the clothes, the experiences, the inspiration! See you soon!

Amusing to see this Anon attempting to be as ad hom with fellow Anons as s/he was with me via the "you sound + exaggeration of some trait" formula.

There might be an argument to make for the idea that a certain kind of middle class security underpins my dandyism, but if there is, this Anon isn't making even the most tentative stab in its direction. Why bother, when you can just jab out with flabby, impressionistic ad homs? After all, actually articulating a cogent argument is... painfully middle-class.

how much further do they need to go? you've just confirmed yourself that there's a middle class underpinning (self-consciousness?) there somewhere. proving they were spot on...
