The Deco Dandy challenges the notion of the style moderne (Art Deco) as solely feminine by delving into the interconnected experiences of decorative modernism, nationalism, gender, and sexuality in the years surrounding World War I. Through its exploration, the book proposes a more comprehensive understanding of Art Deco, asserting the significance of the male body, masculinity, and the dandy in this historical narrative. The book offers valuable insights into the evolving role of consumerism, masculinity, design history, and national identity, highlighting important and productive moments in the cultural life of Paris.
