Scott Schuman just wanted to take photographs of people on the street who looked great. His now famous blog ['the bellwether American site that turned photo blogging into an art form'New York Times] was an attempt to showcase the wonderful and varied sartorial tastes of real people - not only those of the fashion industry. The book is a beautiful anthology of Scott's favourite shots from around the world. They include photographs of well-known fashion figures as well as those shots of the anonymous passerby whose imagination and taste delight the viewer.

From the streets of Rio to Bejing, Stockholm to Milan, these are the people that have inspired Scott and in turn, inspired designers and people of all ages, wages and nationalities with an interest in fashion. Intimately designed and created with Scott, the book is a handsome object in its own right, in full colour on hand-picked, quality paper.

Review:

'During all the fashion weeks I am approached by many photographers, Scott is the only one who can ask me to cross the street for a better lighting and I do it! I love his portraits.'

From the Publisher:

Scott doesn't just take pictures, he captures emotion.
There are people in this world who love hard and that's what guides them. These outfits aren't just pieces of colored fabrics sewn together to cover the human body but a display of dreams. Everything has a story, from the shoe designer's first trip to her grandmother's closet to the coat designer's first cold winter in Russia. These outfits express everything we know and have felt up to this point in time and Scott archives it all.

He is not just a photographer. He's an historian marking the feelings of this generation one photo at a time.
