After months of hard work, Dapper Dan magazine’s first issue is on press. A big thanks to Butler, Tanner & Dennis for their wonderful work. We expect DD to hit Europe’s newsstands early March, followed by US, Canada, Australia and Japan. We’ll be updating this site with a list of selected retailers, as our first issue launches across the world. Thank you. Original footage by Emily Moore, audio track by Terry Riley
Although I’m not too much into symbols or symbolisms, this is some date to publish the first post on Dapper Dan magazine’s blog. Twenty six years after the uprising against the Greek military junta, which ended up with a tank crashing through the gates of the Athens Polytechnic, in the early hours of November 17th, 1973. A day regarded as a heroic act of resistance against the military dictatorship and therefore a symbol of resistance to tyranny.
Well I guess this as an ideological overkill, considering that we are talking about a man’s fashion magazine, but I don’t care.
Everything that inspires us, every thought that motivates us to communicate our ideas and beliefs and to excite creative freedom, is to my mind, legit. Photographer unknown
