A dandified man is always ridiculous, but when he adds to his foppery, effemination, he then becomes contemptible. |

Middleton is the dramatist who links the medieval morality plays to Restoration foppery. |
He was a tall, baroquely mustachioed man with a strangely swanlake gait, whose celebrity, odd hats, and denim foppery kept him a focus of street attention in San Francisco's North Beach, his urban habitat. |
Besides, a man who has no foppery at twenty will be a slatternly, dirty-collar, unbrushed-coat man at forty. |
The falsity that proceeds from ignorance does not offend me, but the foppery of it. |
