dapper
Trim and stylish
Dapper describes a man who is neat, trim, and stylish in appearance—smartly dressed with attention to detail.
The word suggests a put-together look that's more crisp than flashy: a dapper gentleman in a bow tie and pocket square.
Dapper carries a slightly old-fashioned charm, often applied to men of smaller stature who dress with particular care.
