Ah! The red feather in her hat! The tiny buttons down the front of her skirt and the belt sitting low and thin on the waistband are stunning! I love the blue of that wall. I love this. Nowhere do I find as much personal style inspiration (which is what I’m interested in above fashion) as on your blog! Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos of beautiful people. Daphne
recently i’ve felt you’ve been posting a lot of photos of people following trends rather than displaying their personal style. I know it’s difficult because of fashion week/s and people log into The Sartorialist expecting to see new and exciting pictures all the time and that must be a lot of pressure, but love it or loathe it this lady has a strong personal look going on that is interesting and different. I love the red feather and the hardware on her bag.It’s a strong individual look and i admire that. (Glad the scary black insect didn’t attack your camera, must have been close….)
I’m not really a huge fan of the look (I am loving the coat), but this image? Rocks. Love the way she pops on the background and the movement of the skirt!
Love her style, it looks very simplist with a childish top , a vintage skirt and the docs, whereas it’s really interesting by looking at her morphology, I couldn’t do that, anyway, I’m not enough thin .
By the way, I’m looking for a new camera, and I would like to shoot grand quality photos, so I question each blog I love photos about his/her camera, so what’s yours ?
This photo is so visually arresting! The red against blue is striking, and I love the contrast between the sharp military-inspired coat and boots and the soft skirt blowing in the wind. Lovely!
This is that same girl with the tweed skirt from last week! My goodness, isn’t she just the best! I might like this look on her just a bit! Such perfection!
What a great color combo! I love her shoes and her skirt…..especially the way she belted it! And the length of the skirt is just perfect. She is totally owning this look!
This reminded me of The Sound of Music. I think it’s the hat. I just love this look!!! The skirt, the hat, the coat, the shirt with the lace? bow? tie? I’m not quite sure what it is, but it worked. It’s just so refreshing. Loved it.
Hey, it’s her again! Who is she? I love these costumes she creates, they’re surreal, and yet she makes them believable and somehow very ‘now’. It’s magical!
The red coat and red feather in her hat are quite fun and bright on this impish woman. I like how all the colors work together, buuuuut there’s something a little a-sexual(?) here. Maybe undo a few buttons to hint at cleavage or try a more feminine shoe.
I LOVE her!! All of the colours she has on are just so dreamy and how on earth did (I’m going to call her ‘Lady in Red’ for now) manage to make those Dr Martens look so darn elegant! DREAMY! Tiffany xoxo
That hat reminds me of my second cousins hunting hat except his is green. That coat is phenomenal, bright military coat, I love the brassy buttons. And the ribbed shirt with the black ribbon, kinda’ reminds me of and old fashioned school teacher, but classier!
Oooh! The lovely girl again. She is my favorite of yours, now. She was so cute in that blue polka dot blouse/tweed skirt/cute hat photo. And there’s that nice bright splash of red again.
Some great stuff going on here. Love the blue background contrasting with the red coat. Love the flow of the skirt, the contrast of the coat with the neutral skirt and top. Love the bow around her neck. And the hat, oh the hat completes it.
this one’s so pretty! i love the skirt and her hat, and the pop of blue that comes from her top. the picture itself looks like art though. beautiful : )
Hmmm. I can’t tell it if I like it because of the blue wall behind her – she might have to walk around with that all day if so.
I appreciate all the pieces, just together it’s a bit much. I’m thinking perhaps if she lost the tie (bow tie?) it might work better because it’s making it too busy for my eyes.
Otherwise I like the use of black as outfit anchors.
Woody Allen would cast her in a second! There is a large nod to Victorian era recently, shoes, tie, and hat…seems fashion is taking a humble look around and reminiscing about bygone days. She should be running an orphanage.
Hmmm, I do like the red and light blue together, but I suspect the silence is because nothing else really works. Skirt is too long and shapeless, black tights, hat, and little necktie conspire to give this an elfin/witchy look altogether.
You had her recently. On the one hand, I admire the thought put into this. On the other hand, I don’t like it for being too calculated, too much of a costume. Tyrolean hat with red feather that is repeated in the coat, little black bow tie, anti-fashion boots… I appreciate the calculations, but say no thanks.
I love this picture. I love the gust of wind that caught her skirt and how the background offsets the shirt under her coat. That coat is also a stunner. She has an Amelie-esque quality to her, non?
This girl is absolutely 100% DROP. DEAD. GORGEOUS! Bravo. the shot is amazing. Everything about this is amazing. Is this the same girl from a prior post a few days back? If so, anyone know who she is? ;)
Brilliant update of Regency style. She’s going to elope with a soldier, like some naughty Jane Austen character. I think it’s the colours, especially, which make me think of the period: just the right blue and fawn against the red coat. Nice.
Glad to see this woman again. I loved her last look that was posted her. In this one, I’m noticing the touches of black that balance her shoes and bring the other colors together. Great hat, that she had on in the other photo a couple weeks ago. Very individual how she’s choosing to wear her skirts above her waistline, apparently. It works on her figure. I’m not quite sold on the color of the skirt with the red coat, though overall I love the entire thing.
I agree–whoever said this look was a shot of current trends is missing the tastefulness that makes the whole thing hang together. She makes people think of The Sound of Music and Mary Poppins; but if you look at the styling in those films (and why not My Fair Lady while you’re at it), you won’t find this look. That’s the genius here, the Jedi mind trick. And the photo, with its staging and timing, is brilliant.
givenchy bag? balenciaga shoes? if im not mistaken- that coat is marc jacobs collection from 2003/4?? (forgive me if im wrong) this girl is fooling everyone! the thing is that she is high-fashion but is playing it so under the radar, nobody knows it by first glance. the epitome of excellent style and excellent taste.
She's glorious & confident in her identity. I adore her for transporting us to another, more elegant era — she's a mix of the 1940s, 1930s, 1880s, and 1910!
And credit to you for photographing her against a chambray background to bring out her colors.
She is wearing the skirt 2 or 3 inches too high. The jacket looks too tight to close. Very school-girlish. This look is immature for any woman out of college.
Viewed apart from everything else, the hat works for her.
Genius. Possibly one of the most dramatic and amazing pictures you have taken for a while. I love how comfortable she looks and the colour combintaions along with girlie yet tomboyish is a perfect mix. 10/10.
Love the bright pop of color with the jacket and feather. Had it not been for that feather, the whole look would’ve been thrown a bit off, but this woman definitely has style.
She has all the delicate, whimisical loveliness of Thomas Lawrence’s ‘Pinkie’ mixed with the dignified classicism of Delacroix’s ‘Liberty Leading the People.’
I love the movement of her skirt, and the colour pop of her coat. This look really works for her. And as for the over-sized clutch…perfecto!! She looks fabulous!
love this photo would like to know if you found her walking past that amazing wall or if you placed her there? Either way its a thrilling combo!!!
I am feeling Bavarian orphan goes to london is given shelter by a horse guard at buckingham palace then gets an early lady diana complex..love it stark individuality!
very much agree with comments saying this girl has very strong personal style, however, the legth and colour of her skirt brings to mind the calf length skirts from Dolce & Gabanna Fall 08 collection. i've no idea whether this was intentional or spontaneoues, either way the whole look is gorgeous!
p.s i LOVE that length/type/colour of skirt, anyone know were to get one?
I love this – her quirky non-conformity is emphasized by unusual lengths and splashes of red. The hints of black all over in her satchel, footwear and accessories help steer it away from overthetop gamine. xxx

Amazing photo, like the the modern Venus of Samotracia’s dress rippling in the air. Lovely!

Great coat-hat-handbag combo… could imagine these same three things with several different outfits underneath….
And could imagine the skirt-shirt-tank-tie combo with other things on top! And of course they all work sooo well together as we see here. Very cool.

Brilliant update of Regency style. She’s going to elope with a soldier, like some naughty Jane Austen character. I think it’s the colours, especially, which make me think of the period: just the right blue and fawn against the red coat. Nice.

Glad to see this woman again. I loved her last look that was posted her. In this one, I’m noticing the touches of black that balance her shoes and bring the other colors together. Great hat, that she had on in the other photo a couple weeks ago. Very individual how she’s choosing to wear her skirts above her waistline, apparently. It works on her figure. I’m not quite sold on the color of the skirt with the red coat, though overall I love the entire thing.

I agree–whoever said this look was a shot of current trends is missing the tastefulness that makes the whole thing hang together. She makes people think of The Sound of Music and Mary Poppins; but if you look at the styling in those films (and why not My Fair Lady while you’re at it), you won’t find this look. That’s the genius here, the Jedi mind trick. And the photo, with its staging and timing, is brilliant.

givenchy bag? balenciaga shoes? if im not mistaken- that coat is marc jacobs collection from 2003/4?? (forgive me if im wrong) this girl is fooling everyone! the thing is that she is high-fashion but is playing it so under the radar, nobody knows it by first glance. the epitome of excellent style and excellent taste.

She's glorious & confident in her identity. I adore her for transporting us to another, more elegant era — she's a mix of the 1940s, 1930s, 1880s, and 1910!
And credit to you for photographing her against a chambray background to bring out her colors.

She is wearing the skirt 2 or 3 inches too high. The jacket looks too tight to close. Very school-girlish. This look is immature for any woman out of college.
Viewed apart from everything else, the hat works for her.

Genius. Possibly one of the most dramatic and amazing pictures you have taken for a while. I love how comfortable she looks and the colour combintaions along with girlie yet tomboyish is a perfect mix. 10/10.

very much agree with comments saying this girl has very strong personal style, however, the legth and colour of her skirt brings to mind the calf length skirts from Dolce & Gabanna Fall 08 collection. i've no idea whether this was intentional or spontaneoues, either way the whole look is gorgeous!
p.s i LOVE that length/type/colour of skirt, anyone know were to get one?

I love this – her quirky non-conformity is emphasized by unusual lengths and splashes of red. The hints of black all over in her satchel, footwear and accessories help steer it away from overthetop gamine.
