Winston, a long-standing friend and one-time flatmate, is a uniquely stylish dresser. He wears bow ties with shorts; bright checked trousers with modified buttons; and women’s knitwear to better fit his slim frame. His blog, Le Vrai Winston, and his writing for other fashion sites, has led to a shortlisting in Esquire‘s Best Dressed Man awards, and to mentions in BA’s Highlife Magazine. I find it reassuring to think that in some cases, people do get recognised for their enthusiasm and passion. I am also glad that there remain a small supply of wonderfully colourful people like Winston who spurn every attempt of society to make them conform.
