boulevardier


A cultivated person who frequents the most fashionable locales in cities like New York, London or Paris.
A boulevardier must express his sense of high fashion and have knowledge of advanced cultural pursuits.

— "What is doing your friend Gerard in town?
"Strolling down Fifth Avenue or Broadway; he is an in-your-face boulevardier."
