On The Street.........Gianpaolo of Al Bazar, Milan


One of my favorite guys in Milano.

This is an excellent example of how to wear brown and grey.

Both Gianpaolo and Lino always make a jacket seem young.

While I Play Catch-up From The Rain...






...here are photos from my first full-on editorial shoot. You might remember back in June I wrote about this British Elle shoot while i was doing it and here are the results.
I'm really happy with the results and that it still looks very much like my work.

Anyway, thanks again for all the beautiful comments about the two year anniversary!

ok, now less typing and more shooting

Do You Know How Much Collar You Can Handle?

I have written a lot about the "proper" amount of cuff to show with a suit.

If your neck and face can handle it, I also love a dramatic amount of collar over a jacket.

Again it is all in relation to your size but it does really finish off a look.

I wish I had a better shot of this but when i look at this image all I can see is that great collar.

On The Street.........Turtleneck & Cuffs, Milano

I don't know how he executes this so well but he has on a white cotton shirt (visible only at the cuffs) under his black turtleneck.

I also love the extreme bravado of his pocket square/

At Burberry

Ciao from Milano!

The tux stripe on his pants were a jewely, sparkly something. Quite cool and reflective in the setting sunlight.

Runway to Reality....Belted Cardigan, Soho


It seems every season I see a Burberry runway look with a cardigan or trench worn open with a belt holding it in place. I always think it looks great but I hardly ever see anyone doing on the street.

This young lady ,however, has done it in a really great, natural way.

I also like how she is transitioning her summer wardrobe into early Fall.

On The Street.......Casual but Not Sloppy New York

I almost want to describe this as a very "well-tailored casual" look but to call it tailored doesn't seem right. It is not tailored but just "well-proportioned" or "well-fitted"
The jacket length is good, the sleeve lengths are good (if not a little fashion-forward) and the jeans are slim but not tight.

So often we call casual is actually just sloppy.

This takes "casual" to higher level.

At Thakoon

So this is exactly how I saw her as I arrived at the Thakoon show.

Back on her heels like that, perfectly relaxed

As I approach her, she sees me and knows I want to take her picture.

I don't want her to move a muscle so I have to start saying "don't move...don't move...don't move ...that is perfect" which , of course, makes her laugh.

A split second, a timeless image.

GQ Oct. Cover

This is one of the most shockingly perfect covers i have ever seen. I hate to gush but wow!
Recently i discussed the VF Best Dressed List, though I wasn't a big fan of the VF list I have to say that the GQ list of 50 "Most Stylish Men" is very good. The choices are well done and the images chosen to illustrate those choices are superb.

ok, enough GQ for the day

GQ @ 50 Party

GQ had it's 50th anniversary party last night in New York and what a bash!!

Kanye West performed a private show that rocked (would "rocked" be correct for hip-hop singing?)

I didn't bring my regular camera because I just wanted to have fun but once the show started the photographer in me took over and I broke out the cellphone camera.

Anyway, the cover of the Oct GQ that I got is really cool.
It has an old image of Paul Newman which is shocking in it's perfection.
I'm asking if I can scan it and post it today.
I'm telling you, it will be the first thing you see this month when you walk into Barnes & Noble or Kroger's (Indy Supermarket) or any newsstand.

The old covers and review of the last fifty years inside is really incredible - it would have been perfect beach reading or long plane trip to Europe reading!

On The Street.......Simply Chic, Upper East Side

This look could have veered off into dowdy or made her look older than she is but I think she did a great job finding the right size and accessories to make this so chic and sophisticated.
I length it all rides on the length of the dress and the narrowness of the shoulders that creates the right proportion .
