I believe this to be the look of a true aesthete, albeit one beyond the comprehension of ordinary minds.

Observe his sleeves, twinned with his jet-black coat. The lapels that beg for an audience - an audience that is rapt, applauding, chanting even as they descend into a murky abyss of belts and chains! A man who wishes to convey his deepest thoughts to the world, but finds he can only express himself through his sacred and ritualistic robes.

The hat: unexplainable. Possibly even cryptid. I am in awe!

We have been presented with a grim dandy, straddling the bounds between good and bad taste. Send this man my highest regards.

I guess someone had to like it.
Grim dandy is a pretty fair description though.

[legne]

Of course! Some aesthetics are simply impenetrable to mortal minds.

Maybe it could become a new subculture. Imagine it: hundreds of grim dandies, newly emboldened, striding down the street.

Don't encourage him.
That is legit the stuff of nightmares.

Maybe one dandy really is enough. We don't want the general population to become overwhelmed by Style. [ yes she had to capitalise that ] There would be fainting fits across the land!
