The Met Gala just happened and it's theme was "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." This has started a conversation about dandyism and black history. We discuss the roots of black dandyism, how it has differed from general dandyism, how it differs across cultures, and see what it offers us from a Steampunk point of view.
