Beau Brummell

George Bryan "Beau" Brummell (7 June 1778 – 30 March 1840) was an iconic figure in Regency England, the arbiter of men's fashion, and a friend of the Prince Regent, the future King George IV. He established the mode of dress for men that rejected overly ornate fashions for one of understated, but perfectly fitted and tailored bespoke garments. This look was based on dark coats, full-length trousers rather than knee breeches and stockings, and above all immaculate shirt linen and an elaborately knotted cravat.〔("A Poet of Cloth" ), a Spring 2006 article on Brummell's cravats from ''Cabinet'' magazine〕
Beau Brummell is credited with introducing, and establishing as fashion, the modern men's suit, worn with a necktie.〔Ian Kelly, ''Beau Brummell, the ultimate dandy'', London 2005〕 He claimed he took five hours a day to dress, and recommended that boots be polished with champagne.〔(Jane Austen Centre )〕 The style of dress was referred to as dandyism.
==Biography==

Brummell was born in London, the younger son of William Brummell, a politician, of Donnington Grove in Berkshire. The family was middle class, but the elder Brummell was ambitious for his son to become a gentleman, and young George was raised with that understanding. Brummell was educated at Eton and made his precocious mark on fashion when he not only modernised the white stock, or cravat, that was the mark of the Eton boy, but added a gold buckle to it.
He progressed to Oxford University, where, by his own example, he made cotton stockings and dingy cravats a thing of the past. While an undergraduate at Oriel College in 1793, he competed for the Chancellor's Prize for Latin Verse, coming second to Edward Copleston, who was later to become provost of his college.〔The list of winners appears in successive editions of the (Oxford University Calendar )〕 He left the university after only a year at the age of sixteen.
