Men's brooches: from dandy to edgy

Written by Daniel P Dykes

When I wrote of men's brooches as an increasingly prevalent men's fashion trend I made one unfortunate mistake: I labelled them a dandy accessory. Talk about selling the trend short; straight from The Sartorialist we take the concept left of centre; a safety-pin; throw in an earring and a dash of nail polish, and the trend goes from dandy to eff off cool.

Safety pin men's fashion

That particular bit of street style comes from Stockholm during Stockholm Fashion Week.
