Il vero bon ton deriva dall'eleganza interiore, da un animo sereno che si esprime attraverso i gesti quotidiani, la relazione con se stessi e gli altri.

Mangiare è anche un'occasione sociale, che oggi si è profondamente modificata rispetto al passato.

Molte persone, leggendo in copertina la parola «bon ton», si domanderanno che senso abbia nel nostro mondo moderno, tecnologico e globalizzato parlare ancora di etichetta. Ne ha eccome, non solo perché la buona educazione non passa mai di moda, ma anche perché le maniere, lungi dall'essere un vuoto insieme di regole fine a se stesse, sono uno strumento potente per «insegnare alle persone come comportarsi bene con il prossimo, istruendole nella gentilezza e nell'altruismo, con l'idea di pote...

And regardless of whether we like the idea of appearances driving impressions, a man’s exterior often is perceived as an indicator of what’s happening on the interior. Fortunately, tasteful and appropriate d...
