THE GENTLEMAN

SELF INITIATED BRIEF 001

The notion of a gentleman has changed since fifty years ago, is there a definitive character of a gentleman anymore? Now that the class and race system have been broken down, what is the new perception of the modern man?

The first of my self initiated briefs is all to do with the modern man, and if the perception of a gentleman is still alive today, is being a gentleman about the way you dress, the way you act, both or something completely different altogether?

This project is all about modern culture, and social documentation of self expression from a range of people across Britain. It is also about the appearance and behaviour of the perceived gentleman and the inter-relation between the two of them.
