From the fuzzed up, louche psych of album opener "Drifting Caterpillar," to the string-draped, soaring prog-pop of "Are You Stars Out" to the Steely Dan organ grooves of "Take My Time," Dark Arts is a record to sink, track by consecutive track.

The book — assembled from 153 original interviews, along with countless excerpts from letters, diary entries, articles and other ephemera — takes the reader on a dizzying carousel ride around hundreds of boldface European names and the details of their louche lives in the '70s and '80s.

But then the music's pulse quickens again and their latched arms and high-energy kicks transform them into something like the four cygnets from "Swan Lake" — only more louche, and instead of an chilly pond, the setting is a beach house just before dawn.

"Beardo," a 2011 musical by Dave Malloy ("Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812") and Jason Craig, now making its New York debut at St. John's Lutheran Church in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, is a louche, lewd and assertively weird fantasia on the life of Rasputin.

In 2015, Prince Charles anointed Mantel with the title of Dame Commander, Order of the British Empire, the equivalent of knighthood, prompting some in the press to sneeringly draw comparisons between the modern-day royals and the louche, back-stabbing behavior of the Tudors.

Read, listen, learn, and then this Saturday, when some louche dickhead in a Harrington jacket says "you want to put something on mate?" you can confidently tear the cable from his hands, and flood the living room with any number of these foolproof choices.

And while older consumers are increasing their insurance and pension payments to recover from the financial crisis of a decade ago, younger consumers are constrained by the mountain of debt their higher educations cost them, which puts an additional cap on living a louche life of luxury.

The entry spells out E B B E D. 27D: This one wasn't "tight" in that the entry didn't have a double meaning (perhaps if Mr. Taub had used "Minnie the Moocher" or some other louche luminary rather than just "grifter"), but I thought ICON was clever.

Tan and unshaven in loafers, Left possessed the vaguely louche charisma of a club promoter, which is what you might mistake him for were it not for his eyes — green, wet, melancholy eyes, which, because they cannot but project sincerity, are his greatest tools on television.

He paired a long tuxedo shirt in blush chiffon with some slouchy trousers and a cape-cum-tabard; another louche pair of black pants with an oversize white shirt and an elaborately pieced cape flowing from a cropped vest tossed on top — oh, this old thing?

There was Lauren Hutton, herself 70-something, in "Rocco, Rosa, Maria R.," a louche beige wool parka lined in glinting silk faille atop a celadon dress loosely tied at the waist, sequined rose opera gloves slouched down to the wrists and mustard boots on her feet.

The louche vampire who sniffs his fingers and spurns the poor isn't Frederick Seidel—even though, as we learn elsewhere, this "character" who has so little to do with Seidel lives in Seidel's apartment, socializes with his friends, and shares his tastes in wine, shoes, and motorcycles.

He wore the absurdity of boy-band fame lightly, with a wink and smile, and even his look (the swirling quiff of hair, the louche satin shirts, the scrappy jumble of stick-and-poke tattoos) had the dress-for-the-job-you-want whiff of incipient solo stardom.

This movie badly needs some lightness, and the only person who seems willing to provide it is Robert Pattinson, who pops in for a few scenes as the French Dauphin, a louche fop with a weakness for gold silk and an accent that's directly descended from Pépé Le Pew.

Cruyff was associated, and associated himself, with the liberalisation of Dutch culture and the anti-establishment, so it was little wonder that fags became a feature of his public image, this alongside his louche aesthetic, effortless fashionability and habit of annoying the conservative orthodoxy with his defiant nonchalance.
|

As his men and women swapped louche jackets and trousers in houndstooth of many sizes, lounge singer satins and sunburst brocade, he made the case for genderless suiting with grace but without compromise, positing the exchange not as a political statement about the refusal of labels, but as generosity.

Two months later, I saw his fall 2017 couture presentation, another paradox: Here were rustling swaths of silk whose formality was leavened by loose, almost louche necklines that gave the dresses an insouciant air; serious, sophisticated gowns in children's shades of lizard green, bubble-gum pink and crayon blue.

The El Chapo doesn't feel particularly louche, except that it's basically a goblet of tequila, with a hint of pisco and citrus ("Very spirit forward," the server offered optimistically); the Flying Purple Pisco, with purple-potato purée and frothed egg whites, is like a tiny lavender-hued soufflé.

Some items resemble talismans, including earrings adorned with diamond-studded eyes and a large turquoise scarab ring; others, such as a halter bra made of gold and diamonds and a large selection of items with a marijuana leaf motif, dubbed the Sweet Leaf collection, have a deliberately louche and provocative feel.

Leo Zero's recentish, louche, elongated and chuggy-as-fuck take on "Driving Me Wild" is the sound of a night sliding into the inevitable; a manifestation of the moment when the dealer's called for the second time and you've already started drafting the sorry-I-can't-make-lunch-tomorrow text to your mum.

As a former inhabitant of Minneapolis and a huge fan of his work, Uncle Tickle was especially saddened by the originator's tragic passing, and with help of his bud Velvet Negroni, he's finally pulled together "Full Court Press"—a louche, cool-as-a-very-phallic cucumber track that Prince would sure be down with.

Seen at this scale, the verisimilitude of small details was easier to savor: the posters of Broadway plays that line the walls of Lisa's apartment; the harshness of the fluorescent light in the kitchen where Lisa talks with a louche schoolmate, played by Kieran Culkin, whom she has invited over to take her virginity.

"I find Sunset Strip to be objectification overload, with all these advertising images and movie billboards of young women not only promoting the same standards of beauty but also images that can be quite sexually violent," Ms. Buckman said, referring to the legendary stretch through West Hollywood with a long history of louche casinos, nightclubs and erotic businesses.

Fortunately the mayonnaise is minimized or absent in the better rolls, whose contents could as easily be strewn over rice as encased in it: roast duck and braised pork gone louche in a pot with mei cai (dried pickled mustard greens) at Nuan Xin; hunks of chicken dark from long brooding in soy sauce at Jiang Xin.

Getting in touch with nature, he says, is what inspired him to enroll in design school instead; eight years later, in 2016, he created an eponymous line of spare furniture and lighting that includes high-backed caned chairs made from indigenous caramel-colored jequitibá wood and louche smoked-glass end tables, all informed by the Brazilian coast.

Among its cast of characters are Velvet Underground stars and Warhol divas; fashion legends including Betsey Johnson, Stephen Sprouse, Tina Chow and Marc Jacobs — the latter long before he was a marquee name; concert idols in the making, including David Bowie, Bryan Ferry and Iggy Pop; and louche habitués of the fabled nighttime haunts Area and the Mudd Club.

The actual term in the puzzle is about a century old, and may have inspired the moniker of a very early character in Mickey Mouse cartoons, Mr. Slicker, a nefarious and louche town mouse whose highfalutin' ways drive Mickey to some very drastic actions that might have nipped his long career in the bud had they succeeded.

The show also includes a staircase made for one really grand entrance, a slew of singing waiters and, in their midst (in the title role), she whom the patrons of louche bathhouses in the 1970s hailed as the Divine Miss M. If you don't know that's Bette Midler, don't bother joining the queue for last-minute cancellations.

He promised to build a wall; he said that our country was being weakened by louche, violent, parasitic immigrants; he said Obama was an illegitimate president with a forged birth certificate; he vowed to stop Muslims from traveling to the country; and in every speech, at every turn, he promised to turn back the clock, to make America great again.

Even Kenny Scharf, who practically lived out of this spot, seemed unsure on a recent afternoon whether 57 Saint Marks Place was truly the former location of Club 57, the basement bar that served as the louche headquarters for a now-legendary art movement and its foremost triad of art stars, the painters (and sometimes friendly rivals) Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Mr. Scharf.

And it was also present at Valentino, where Mr. Piccioli not only largely eschewed the obvious, but also many of the conventional rules of couture itself, treating daywear in a rainbow of colors with the throwaway mix-and-match ease of sportswear: pairing a long tuxedo shirt in blush chiffon with slouchy trousers and a capelike tabard; another louche pair of black pants with an oversize white shirt and an elaborately pieced cape flowing from a cropped vest tossed on top — oh, this old thing?
