We all know and love Scott Schuman, alias the Sartorialist, the fashion chronicler of the moment.
He started The Sartorialist simply sharing photos of people that he saw on the streets of New York that he thought looked great. When he worked in the fashion industry for 15 years, he always felt that there was a disconnection between the clothes he was selling in the showroom and the outfits of the people in the streets of NY city.
Now Topshop is celebrating Schuman’s recently published book by creating looks based on five of Schuman’s photographs from New York Fashion Week.
A few months ago, he was classified among the 100 most influential persons in fashion, congratulated by Karl Lagerfeld for his new book.
His pictures are seen daily by more than 150.000 visitors, his photos give the air of time, inspiring both the fashionista lambda and the creators. His objective and vision consists in capturing the street style and immortalize his aesthetic feelings.
I was photographed by someone from his team a few years ago and am amazed to see how his website and reputation grew so fast.
