Beautiful coat..has a 1950s quality about it.. her subject looks a tad shy like she doesn't want her picture taken.

 

Blogger Nadine2point0 said ... (8:40 AM) : 

Absolutely charming! Her shoes are the best!

I just can't get with wearing men's shoes. Other men's wear is ok. Shoes, not so much.

nice coat, I'm wondering was she saying hello, or she did not want you take her a picture?

The coat is very flattering, as is the subject's modesty. However, I do not think that man-style shoes flatter women.

 

Anonymous @unChCh said ... (9:02 AM) : 

such a strange coat!

I just saw your video on "Intel Visual Life"... Love it!
It's interesting to discover that people are more humble than their "output" may lead to think :D

Love the men's shoes/short pants combo! And the coat is beyond adorable. I want it!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:58 AM) : 

The hang of the coat is a bit disconcerting. The way it hikes up in the front makes me think she might be pregnant or that overweight girls would rush to buy this. The small check and the asymmetry of the pockets, with two buttons, are incredible details that still cause me to like what I am seeing.

 

Blogger La Mona se viste de seda said ... (10:04 AM) : 

I don't like this look...

 

Blogger larainydays said ... (10:05 AM) : 

Her modest smile is lovely and her big clonking shoes just highlight the contrast.

I just adore the pattern and the colors of her coat although the shape isn't so nice in my opinion..

the past two Italian women posts were similar in that they were both sporting otherwise masculine pieces and yet exuded femininity...which you captured perfectly, Scott!

Anonymous Maryanne said ... (11:26 AM) : 

coco chanel did this brilliantly in the last century.
borrowing from her lover's closets.
and this is what i'm thinking looking at this photo.
this lovely woman spent the night at her boyfriend's home, awakened late for work, couldn't wear her evening dress/high heels from the night before..
so she raided his closet and called it fashion.

 

Blogger TheBuddhist said ... (11:28 AM) : 

I love how she wears the whole get-up. She seems shy, but her posture screams complacence. Her and her outfit look timeless.

Blogger 82Brute said ... (12:25 PM) : 

I may be wrong, but these shoes appear to be actual men's shoes (as opposed to the red and white spectators in the earlier photo) and to my eye are a bit heavy to pair with her lovely slim pants and the lady coat. Great use of vintage pieces, nevertheless, and she's got such an appealing way about her. I can see her in a Woody Allen movie.

Agree, there is an aspect of self consciousness, as if shes doesnt feel very much confident in front of the camera; although its hard to say why; She looks amazing! I adore the way she feminizes the whole look; the mannish bulkiness of the shoes seem to appear perfectly normal; as if we should all wear them like so. Great Picture as well...X Neda X

Since I am a newcomer I want to start by saying I loved what you said on the video, about what you see and wanting to perpetuate it through photography. It was so beautiful, like all your pictures are. And it's trully inspiring to see
such great design worldwide, on a street near you or me. Love it.
It starts in a small distance, from one human being to the other.
Congratulations and hope to see you photographing on the streets of Lisbon one day :)

I think the coat is beautiful, but from my point of view, the shoes give her a clownesque touch, not because they are male oriented shoes or whatever, but because I think they are too large for a slim (and pretty, for sure) girl like her.

I would bet they are larger than her actual feet size. Strange.

Blogger Leah.Raich said ... (12:36 AM) : 

I love the checkered coat with the cropped trousers. I wish the coat were more form-fitting, because it appears very unflattering. The shoes are a little too masculine for my taste. Her expression appears timid, but the framing of the shot is exceptional. The outfit is simple, yet stylish.
