Etymology
The term 'dapper' originated in the early 17th century, derived from Middle Dutch 'dapper,' which meant 'brave' or 'handsome.' The sense of 'neat' or 'trim' emerged in English, first recorded in the 1600s. By the 19th century, 'dapper' had evolved to describe smartly dressed men who exude a sense of elegance and sophistication. The adverb form 'dapperly' follows the natural progression of English word formation, applying the stylistic qualities of being dapper to the manner in which someone presents themselves. The connection to fashion and social status is apparent, as being dapperly attired often indicates attention to detail and a polished appearance, especially in a formal context.
