  • EP201: Dandism, Elegance As Rebellion
    In today’s solo episode, I dive into the world of Dandism its quiet elegance, its loud rebellion, and the cultural significance often overlooked. Inspired by the recent Met Gala, which sadly felt more like a clash than a celebration, I reflect on how Dandism has historically been a form of resistance, a declaration of identity, and a fight for visibility in the world of menswear. Was this tension at the Gala just fashion drama, or is it something deeper perhaps orchestrated by the fashion elite? Have we lost sight of what these men stood for? Let’s explore the roots, the rebellion, and the beauty of Dandism together.

We dive into Tony's personal journey into the world of menswear and explore what drew him to Osti's iconic brands. Our conversation unpacks how these labels became essential pieces of 90s youth culture especially on the football terraces, where they weren’t just clothes, but cultural statements. We discuss Magnetic, the book co authored by Tony Rivers and James Burnett, which chronicles how Osti’s designs made their way to the UK and left an indelible mark on both menswear and football culture. From the idea of a "uniform" worn by terrace-goers to the emergence of a new subculture, this episode uncovers how clothing became a language of identity, rebellion, and unity.
