I’m not sure what I’m supposed to love fashion-wise about this picture. That’s a sack of a dress doing nothing for her. The shoes are nothing to speak of. Is is the print? She is pretty, but I don’t get what’s interesting or attractive about the clothes.

I think the point of this is the photo. The mom’s smooth, straight hair juxtaposed with the child’s big hair is a great contrast. (I love big hair)

I think the dress’s pattern and sheen is cool. Not a flattering fit, but that’s often the case with a lot of these photos.

I can’t decide who is more unique looking. A really interesting image.

Oh what a gorgeous shot. I’d like to see more of it, a tiny bit, on the right and less on the left, but it’s still positively gorgeous because of its textures, colours and facial expressions!

I’m with Jen on this one. But the kid’s hair is amazing. I love it. A belt could do wonders for the woman’s dress.

I think she is gorgeous and the dress looks great on her and it’s about time you shot some yummy mummies!!! more please!!

I can’t decide what’s sweeter: the lady’s pretty-printed dress or the HUGE hair of the child in the pushchair.

Isn’t this the serenely beautiful woman you photographed at the Dries show?

here’s a thought – flattering is subjective. the color is gorgeous on her, the hair is so beautifully down yet back (people always get haircuts these days, never bothering with hairstyles!), and that dress, the length, the material, it flatters her very much. does everything have to be cinched and pinched and cut low to flatter? for all we know, she has a wide wide waist, in which case isn’t this the smartest sartorial choice she could make anyway? i think she looks wonderful.

Jen…it’s not ALWAYS about fashion on this blog. It’s not ALWAYS about cloths. Mr Sartorialist also likes to shoot interesting people.

there’s something natural and so easy about this shot that for me it makes it such a great nyc shot.

so i guess i would disagree with jen. but i can see why people outside of the city may not like this…

sublime.

This is truly a great shot!
I love the dress of the Mom, but also the expression in their faces.
This is so ‘real life’

wow, more more more of these *please*
totally inspiring for me as a new mom who tries desperately to stay stylin’

I don’t know why one would call this lovely woman with fashion flair the “caregiver.” Be careful.

love the kid’s hair!!

aww I love this shot. Contrasting cultures, patterns and textures… similar expression shared by mom and child.
Sart. this put a smile on my face. Continue to shoot the interesting and unique. I agree it doesn’t always need to be about the clothes.

I actually passed this woman while she was wearing this dress! I had thought about how fabulous she looked with her kid in tow that Sunday afternoon.
How exciting to see something on here that you had seen in real life and thought was wonderful.

I like the picture…well especially of the child looking as if he or she is hiding :-)

Er, there is nothing wrong with calling someone a caregiver. It is in fact wonderfully evocative and polite. We don’t know if this woman is a mother or a nanny or an aunt or what. Caregiver is the correct term to use and it certainly isn’t a non-positive thing to say.

That kid’s hair rocks! I’d kill for that fro!

Im with Jen too !

The dress is awful in my opinion, it hangs just like a sack and is completely unflattering.

I do like her hair and she is pretty but it is another example on these pages of someone who with a few sartorial adjustments could look really damn good
