    When most of us thinking of menswear style our default setting is to think of western nations as those tailoring styles dominate the world of menswear. However, there are 1.2 billion people living across Africa in 54 different countries each with their own unique style, color pallet, and fashion trends. That is more people than the US and Europe combined. While designers from Africa might not dominate the menswear landscape, they most certainly have a voice and are doing things differently than the rest of the world in many ways. Ezekiel Palmer is a prime example of the ingenuity and forward-thinking taking place within menswear style in Africa. Palmer is Zimbabwe-born, Australian Educated clothier based in Johannesburg who is working to elevate the global perception of menswear style in Africa.

    Peak Vs Notch Lapel

    Peak Vs Notch lapel, that is a conversation many of us have had with each other and even more of us have had internally. When you have you have your first suit made it might even be a question that comes up with your tailor. If you don't know the answer beforehand you are taking a crapshoot on your style. It just so happens that dana is strongly in the notch lapel camp and Jai is firmly planted in the peak lapel camp. Of course, the two of them wear both lapels at different times but they are 90% in one camp of peak vs notch lapels. The notch lapel, which can also be called a step lapel or step collar is much more of a classic look, especially in American tailoring, it creates a clear notched appearance in the lapel. It is widely considered to be a much more casual lapel than peak or shawl which is why it's almost always the standard on a single-breasted suit. and can on rare occasions be seen on a double-breasted suit. The peak lapel, also referred to as the peaked lapel and pointed lapel is a far more formal variant of a suit and is the default for a double-breasted jacket and even a single-breasted tuxedo. When a single-breasted jacket is fitted with a peak lapel it's considered to be a more formal jacket. ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to the Dapper Villains YouTube Channel for even more content - https://bit.ly/DapperVillains ---------------------------------------------------------- Follow Dapper Villains on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dappervillains/ ---------------------------------------------------------- Follow Dapper Villains on Spotify - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsSpotify ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on iTunes - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsApple ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on Google Play - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsGoogle ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe on Stitcher - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsStiticher ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on Podbean - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsPodbean ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on TuneIn - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsTuneIn ----------------------------------------------------------

    The Art of Menswear: Sunflowerman

    In the world of menswear, the focus is often on the designer, the tailor, the cutter, but very rarely do we think about it from the view of an artist, today that is what we do when we talk with renowned menswear artist Matt Miller aka Sunflowerman. He grew up in Michigan and from an early age was drawn to art. This attraction led him to art school, but the constraints of art school did not sit well with him and he soon parted ways with institutional education to strike out on his own path. It was that path that fueled his passion for capturing a new perspective of menswear. And it wouldn't take long before his perspective of menswear, men's style and accessories would find an audience in the more sartorial world. That audience has lead to him being commissioned by major brands and publications to help them express and artistic vision of their work. Sunflowerman has also produced a series of books, which are linked below. ---------------------------------------------------------- Buy Sunflowermans Books   ---------------------------------------------------------- 100 Watches: An Illustrated Collection: eBook - https://amzn.to/3cr4hpx 100 Watches: An Illustrated Collection: Hardcover - https://amzn.to/2MlghOH Aesthetic Guide for the Dapper Man: Hardcover - https://amzn.to/3eKj5Bd Project Sketchbook - https://amzn.to/2XrLMgt Daily Fashion: ebook - https://amzn.to/2TVTJZ5 ---------------------------------------------------------- Follow Sunflowerman on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sunflowerman/ ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to the Dapper Villains YouTube Channel for even more content - https://bit.ly/DapperVillains ---------------------------------------------------------- Follow Dapper Villains on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dappervillains/ ---------------------------------------------------------- Follow Dapper Villains on Spotify - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsSpotify ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on iTunes - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsApple ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on Google Play - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsGoogle ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe on Stitcher - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsStiticher ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on Podbean - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsPodbean ---------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe to Dapper Villains on TuneIn - https://bit.ly/DapperVillainsTuneIn ----------------------------------------------------------

Though he left the suit and tie behind when he crossed the rubicon to hip hop journalism, he has always taken notice of the way style and fashion interweave with the art and culture of hip hop. From JayZ and Puffy with their sartorial menswear approach, Black Thought and Kendrick Lamar with their effortless style, or A$AP Rocky and Future with their more fashion-forward wears, even Jidenna with his sartorial elegance, menswear and hip-hop are tied at the hip.

    Welcome to the first episode of Dapper Villains... This Podcast has been a long time coming, it's something we have been talking about and working gon for a while. Be Sure to Follow us on YouTube for more content  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXMxgwkToauXY4uyibiftMQ Dapper Villains as a concept actually dates back to 2015 when dana first came up with the idea, but it never got off the ground. The vision has changed from what it originally was back in 2015 and it's this combination of dana and Jai that make it possible. In this first episode, we read our manifesto and go over what the core values of the show will be. to that end we thought it would be a good idea to share that with you here. The Dapper VIllains Manifesto: Language is a peculiar thing, you can speak a thousand words all while not making a single point, or say just a single word and convey more meaning than one can fathom. Words can have multiple meanings depending on the way or the context in which you use them. Because we are using two very unique words in an eclectic way to describe our channel, our podcast, our style and ultimately ourselves I thought it would be a good idea to dive in and build the context around our word choice. For us Dapper is our individual style, the way we carry ourselves and the way our style makes us feel. Yes, our styles are vastly different, but both are still dapper, Because for us Dapper is an elevation of style that transcends fashion, which embodies the passion we have for living life and expressing ourselves. Some might consider a Villain to be evil, but that doesn't have to be the case. If we look at its most basic definition a Villain is simply a character who opposes the hero. It's a simple definition, often misunderstood. A Villain doesn't have to be evil in some specific way, they just have to stand in opposition to the perceived hero in a story. Perceived is the word to focus on here, why would you perceive something as a hero? In a world driven by fast fashion, a 24/7 news cycle, and advertising overload through the media telling you what to wear and how to be a man, no one would blame you if you perceived that as the standard, as the hero of men's style. It's going to take a Villain to step out of the shadows and oppose that view, that perceived hero. To show you another way, a more dapper way, throw fast fashion aside, step away from consumerism and drown out the media in order to embrace classic men's style, understand the rules, and then break them as a true Dapper Villain would. We're not here to tell you what to wear, we want to help you figure out what it is YOU want to wear. We want to expose you to style that you might like, or you might not both are fine, we want you to have a well-formed opinion tho. However, we would be remiss to think the two of us can do this alone. To that end we will bring you conversations with the unsung of menswear, those whose creativity and craftsmanship make the Dapper Villains ethos possible, so we can all learn from each other and expand our sartorial perspective. Our goal is to be provocative, but thoughtful and we hope we can also be insightful. So, If you desire a journey into the dapper side of life, then we invite you to let Dapper Villains be your guide. Stay Dapper, Stay Villainous. We hope you will join us on this menswear journey from workwear to the highest sartorial style we want to visit it all.
