Beau Brummell

English man of fashion (1778–1840)

George Bryan "Beau" Brummell (7 June 1778 – 30 March 1840) was an English socialite who influenced British men's fashion during the Regency era. He was a close friend of the Prince Regent, the future King George IV, but after the two quarrelled and Brummell got into debt, he had to take refuge in France. Eventually, he died from complications of neurosyphilis in Caen.
