The simple, clean lines of this outfit really place great
emphasis on the elongated silhouette. The symmetrically ripped jeans at the
knee and the hair also add a subtle contrast and irregularity to the otherwise
minimal aesthetic.

On the street...private disposition
This has to be one of my favourite looks I’ve photographed
so far; it reflects on my taste of understated albeit still cool aesthetic for menswear. It’s
also very characteristic; the tattoos, the strong, raw face and his general
presence bestow my adoration for it. However my initial draw to photograph this
shot was largely for the beauty of it; by this I mean it wasn’t as much as the
look but more about the positioning and posture of the subject. Alongside the stirring
backdrop, he managed to create an intimate, quiet moment around himself.
Entirely disengaged from the public view or motion. Thus, by placing myself in parallel
arrangement, I attempted to capture what I envisioned of this moment, and
hence, of the subject; a private disposition.

On the street...Craft
The concept is pretty simple here: short sleeve knit, pair
of pants, shoes and a bag for all necessities. Albeit, the content is much more
complex, thus distinctive; all pieces are beautifully cut and tailored, forming
a look that isn’t merely sharp, but also indefinitely cool.

On the street...Avant-Garde
This photo really ceases to capture the extensive detail of the
construction and tailoring of the garments; they resemble individual pieces of
art. The elusive contours and details of the skirt, the distinct cuffs of the
silk blouse, the contrasting boots and the raw steel frames pertain more to notions
of architecture, sculpture and other semblances to visual art in which one appreciates
solely the visual and intellectual content, as opposed the overused term of “fashion”.

On the street...Black silhouette
I have always, almost innately, been drawn to all-black
looks, both personally as well as in moments when I’m on the street. It can be executed
simplistically, if abiding by conventional silhouettes and proportions. Thus,
it can be quite restricted. Albeit, I think the key differentiation between the
archetypical black look and that of an innovative, distinctive one is the
execution of silhouette, proportions, prints and material. In the above case, it’s the proportions; the
oversized sleeveless jacket adds an individual touch. That and the shoes are
great too.
On the street...Bohemian nature
There are no references to trends in this girl’s look; she
simply exudes a personal, raw quality. I was drawn to her instantly, albeit I
was hesitant to photograph her. In the end, I am so pleased I did.
