the sartorialist

I just heard about a fashion-related blog called, The Sartorialist. If you are a fashion fan, you are rolling your eyes and saying to your computer, "You are just hearing of this now? Where have you been?"

"I have been not reading The Sartorialist," I suppose would be my reply.

With that conversation out of the way, allow me to comment. Hey, The Sartorialist is kind of neat. It seems that the photographer, Scott Schuman, has converted his blog into quite a career for himself. Check out his press page. I applaud him for that.

One thing though. He gets the consent of his subjects. Note their smiles in the pictures. By contrast, my In Hot Pursuit of a Handbag series features my subjects' backs as they dart down the street in typical New York fashion. I chase my subjects' handbags down without their knowing, and without their smiling faces pictured. I think I will continue my In Hot Pursuit of a Handbag series.
