Yes, the important thing to note is that the phrase “man of the world” covers both end of the spectrum. When used to describe a man, it has both positive as well as negative connotations, usually both.

Or to describe a woman, for that matter. It means the same thing.

Here are media examples for you to get a better feel, via context, of what a man or woman of the world is like:

1. Carine Roitfeld’s first project since leaving French Vogue has been revealed and it’s not her and Tom Ford taking over Dior. So the overreaching rumors can stop.

Roitfeld will style and even serve as somewhat of an inspiration for Barneys New York Fall 2011 advertising campaign and catalogue. She will even style the store’s Madison Avenue windows. All these will be unveiled in September.

Barneys New York tapped Mario Sorrenti to photograph the campaign and catalogue in two locations – New York and Paris. And it is Roitfeld’s laid back and cool Parisian attitude which will set the mood. Barneys creative director Dennis Freedman says of Roitfeld, “She is the ideal muse as well as editor. She has a unique and extraordinary personal style. She appeals to all ages. She is independent and strong, and yet she is completely feminine. She is a woman of the world, which we like to think our customer is, as well.”
