Dark, grainy cell-phone shot of self through dirty bathroom mirror while standing on toilet seat with fuzzy cover.

No pic included, since you can't make out the clothes anyway.

Looks more like Fuuma in a more innocent time of his life.

Whatever the S.F cognoscenti deems to be flavour of the month.

Are you a fan of Quentin, his style that is?

I like the fact that he developed a truly unique style ... and stood up for himself. I recall seeing him a number of times in New York ... he had immense presence.

I am a fan of that particular photo for a particular reason, however ... apart from the hair color ... he reminds me of my grandmother. Also looks a bit like Sebastian Horsley's mother.

Side Note: Sebastian's mother and my grandmother are not one and the same.

Yes, he was something of a modern day Oscar Wilde, with his quips, aphorisms and quiet dignity.

Ah, Horsley. I suspect he was the Anderson/Huntsman customer with the 'unusual' pocket request.

I suspect though, that Crisp wouldn't have been a fan of Horsley, he would have seen through him.

Crisp is an interesting fellow, he did as you say, cultivate a style very much his own. Very authentic.

Richard (Anderson) made his red sequin number ... and I know of the pockets and their use.

I agree ... although I understand they did meet ... oddly enough in New York. As for Horsley's mother ... I find her to be a dignified looking women.
