The phenominal worldwide reception for the publication of the recent Sartorialist book was possibly unsurprising - after all, it did feature a rather splendid picture of Spoonfed's Arts Editor...

Now Trolley Books are publishing something that in a way has some similarities, in that they're both about fashion and style in the real world. Gentlemen of Bacongo contains a whole wealth of photographs taken by Daniele Tamagni that depict the flashily-clad dandies of the Congo.

With an intro by Sir Paul Smith, this is a fascinating and inspiring publication. And this weekend you can see all the pictures on display in Redchurch Street.

Until 05.06.10.
