What I like about the grittiness is that the girls themselves are very pretty, and if it wasn’t for the hard (and wise) looks in their eyes, I would be wondering what they were doing there.
You are very wrong if you think that all the cities in Poland looks like that… Most of them are beuatifull with very interesting history. Come visit us and you will find out :)

Photo is great. This fog is insane. But I must agree with Robert. I’ve been to Poland many times. I was born in Görlitz. I live in Frankfurt am Main. Polish cities are dirty and seedy when compared with German cities. Graffiti is everywhere even on churches and Poles are OK with it.

I must strongly disagree with Michael. I’ve lived in Poznan for 4 years. Before I moved here, I’d lived in Murcia, Paris, Hamburg. Every of these cities has its own ‘dirty’ districts. Well, some of them are just old (not dirty) and they need some renovation. If you compare a business center to a district built in the middle 50′s, you make a big mistake. I think Poznan is much cleaner than f.e. Paris where gutters flow thru streets.
y’all should visit kuala lumpur. our city most beautiful compared with all cities y’all said!

Most former East European cities are really really beautiful and old! Worn out buildings maybe, but they have a wonderful architecture. You should visit places like Krakow, Prague, Tallinn, Budapest and of courseSt. Petersburg which is the most beautiful city in the whole world, wins even Paris!
There are always different points of view. For me for example a city which is completely clear, without any graffiti or old buildings, is sort of without “emotions”. Everything what you can see in every place, is a image of what happened to it, what kind of people lived here, what they went through. There is a dirt everywhere in the world as well as poverty etc. It’s a part of our reality. I personally see piece of beauty, an element of emotions in mostly every graffiti or destroyed building… Imagine a men without any scars, wrinkles, moles or freckles. How plastic and unnatural he would look.
I am soon visiting Krakow, I look forward to going there.
This image is perfection!
So different form other posts you do. http://untrucoudeux.wordpress.com/
Amazing, i am polish myself (living in China for the past 10 years) and that was the first thing that came into my mind, too. They have this californian style, which is so much much polish at the same time… Interesting.
My first time to comment but had to! Great color story and combination of print and texture both on the subjects and their surroundings. Also love that it looks freezing therefore These girls are made of steel. Great shot.
I find the graffiti in the background the most interesting… I was in Poland (Krakow, Warsaw, Kielce, Lublin) a few months ago and I found the juxtaposition of graffiti to contemporary Polish life and culture so interesting. At some point someone wrote “pinokio” on that wall… perhaps referring to their frustration with government. That it continues to remain untouched on that wall is fascinating! Poland is a lovely place, and this is a great picture.
My grandmother came to this country from Poland at the start of the 20th century. This picture, these young women – it all makes me so proud of that heritage. Beautiful work.
These are great photos from Poland. It’s nice to see photos from a different part of the world and of new people.
I’m especially intrigued by anything featuring the people and creativity of Eastern Europe. They have an entirely different aesthetic and it’s fascinating to see it featured here. Keep up the great work!
Incredible photo. It seems like these beautiful, stylish girls have so much thinly veiled disdain for the photographer. And the setting looks like a warzone. Enigmatic!
I love that you are expanding into these new and “undiscovered” cities for fashion! It is so wonderful to be able to draw inspiration from fresh faces and new places! Thanks for branching out Scott!
Typical Poland: gray surroundings and beautiful girls- like flowers in the sea of gray reality; but the important thing is: these girls are happy and do not suffer from depressions etc. strong, independent and BEAUTIFUL.
love Poland!
It so good to know, that you know that here, in Poland we are so beautiful too. Pozdrowienia dla wszystkich miłośników Scotta w Polsce. Kochamy Cię, Scott.
Finally! I was looking forward to seeing pictures form Poland. Very polish, completely different fashion than the others, but cool. Have a great time in Poznan.
So far my impression from your photos is that every woman in Poland is stunningly beautiful in a natural way. I’m guessing this can’t actually be true, cool modelesque beauties populating the streets, but it sure does look that way.
We live the city and its people trough these photos …. We love particulars: color of bycicle, lipstick, nail …. the ring of woman on the bycicle ….. thanks Sartorialist
Being from “Eastern Europe” I am really excited to see ur photos from this part of Europe since you post photos from there so rarely .. I really hope you will have a good time and will come back to explore also other countries! I definitely think the girls in Eastern Europe have a good sense of style, that is bit different that you see in the streets of countries of Western Europe or New York, I am excited to see if you can capture that !
Oh, most beautiful photo! (Also I think the name of the street should be Krakowska, since there isn’t such thing as Krakoeskaw in Polish…)
I love how the colours match perfectly (and how the splash of colour on the bike is the same shade as one of graffitis)!
Please keep them comming :)
Brilliant. I think there is something very real and vital about these Polish shots that is lacking in the Paris, Milan and especially NY ones. I don’t mean the composition or tonal qualities of the photo – it is the people in them. The others often seem vacuous and fake and often smug in their expensive attire; they preen and pose. The Polish ones, especially the artist have mystery and allure . . .
and just when you come to Poland for the first time (and I hope: not the last one!), and just when you come to Poznan (where I usually live), I’m in China, far, far away! how unlucky is that??
dunno if my other (earlier) comment will appear, but in the meantime, do you want to know the real spelling of the name of this street…or is this on purpose? ^^
J’adore l’atmosphère qui se dégage de la photo. Des nuances de gris incroyables. Avez-vous remarqué que beaucoup de filles de l’EST ont les yeux gris aussi ?
Have a good day.
Welcome to Poland :) I was hoping you would visit us, there’s a lot to photograph here and I wold like to see your view of this wicked, sweet-sour reality. Come to Warsaw or Krakow some day!
Wonderful shot. Amazing the strength, the beauty, the young spirit of these women with all their lives forward … The red lips and the ring of the riding girl and the hands in movement of her friend in Poland….. Good to know about this country most of the time forgotten but very very interesting as well. Thanks for it!
Love it as it is so far away from the fashion circus pics we have seen the last month. So simple and beautiful. I just love Poland and cannot wait to visit again. Madrid Street Style http://madrilicious.com
great pic very tasty and nostalgic…please do come more often to Poland, we need such a kick! Your two pics did more to promote Poland as an interesting, modern place to visit, than most of the blogers, fashion designers and celebs from pl…I like that you went inside the city.than u, we are not so rural country anymore:)
That foggy background is perfect. Misterious and eye-catching shot. So Polish, because there’s overwhelming greyness and colours emerging from underneath.
Scott, you’ve got many followers in Poland ;) Me being one of them. Thanks for catching that beautiful foggy atmosphere, it brings back the memories of the crazy days I spent studying at Univ in Poznań. Magical place.
Poznań has best-looking and best-dressed people in whole Poland in my opinion. I can even say, that is the most ‘western-european’ city in this country.
Poland is not in Eastern Europe but in Central Europe (with Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary). Major difference people – they have latin alphabet, different mentality, are part of United Europe and they are catholic – not like in Easter Europe – russian-orthodox. ‘Easter Europe’ term does not apply to all the countries in that region anymore! – the differences are too big and growing.
I think people are meaning “Former East European” What it used to be for so long time. We all know its central Europe an a map. As we also know Sweden is up North :) But its still a huge difference if you compare Copenhagen and Bucharest. Already 10 minutes on the street in B you can see that you are in “East-Europe” Same with Poland and Estonia etc. Those countries are changing but really really slowly. I.e in Northern Europe we do not have any stray animals on the street, no people begging, and the roads are not full of huge wholes in them.. and you can drink the tap water.
We drink tap water as well in Poland. Go to Paris and you’ll see stray animals on the street, lots of people begging, and the roads full of huge wholes in them, and that’s a western Europe!
For the past two-three years, every time I have watched the photos on this blog, I have had the ardent wish deep inside me that you would come to Romania at least once. I always felt that even if you photograph so many people in western Europe, the U.S. and Asia, this central-eastern European look, this deep, too-wise for their age look is something you can only encounter in our side of Europe. Now I’m moving to London, but I still hope to see photos of some Romanian women on your blog one day. For now, the Polish are a delight.
i’m so excited that you were in Poland! i always wanted to suggest you should come to visit but i was to embarassed to do so. next time you should come to Gdansk and Krakow, they are also very interesting! i hope you liked Poland, cheers :)!
Good for you for giving Poland some much-deserved love, and attention! This nation is a rising star as far as design and fashion go, and the people have been a fascination of mine, since I grew up in an area heavily populated with Poles. I enjoy your work, please keep going back to Poland and Central/Eastern Europe…..Thank you Scott!
Finally, Scott in Poland! Looking at your book the other day, I was thinking, there should be some Polish accents. Btw interesting to read some comments about ‘magic’ wisdom in the eyes and ‘harsh’ surrounding. Being Polish I wonder what is so attractive now about the country that it is getting so hip among foreigners? Back to Polish girls, I would say they have a bit of Californian attitude but with a better style, less messy and more sharp&casual sexy. Scott hope you enjoy your visit.
POlish girls are simply gorgeous almost no matter what they wear. No matter there are at least 6 of them in TOP 30 greatest models of the ’00s according to Vogue, and almost half of them are Slavs..

J’adore l’atmosphère qui se dégage de la photo. Des nuances de gris incroyables. Avez-vous remarqué que beaucoup de filles de l’EST ont les yeux gris aussi ?
Have a good day.

Wonderful shot. Amazing the strength, the beauty, the young spirit of these women with all their lives forward … The red lips and the ring of the riding girl and the hands in movement of her friend in Poland….. Good to know about this country most of the time forgotten but very very interesting as well. Thanks for it!

That foggy background is perfect. Misterious and eye-catching shot. So Polish, because there’s overwhelming greyness and colours emerging from underneath.

Poznań has best-looking and best-dressed people in whole Poland in my opinion. I can even say, that is the most ‘western-european’ city in this country.

Poland is not in Eastern Europe but in Central Europe (with Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary). Major difference people – they have latin alphabet, different mentality, are part of United Europe and they are catholic – not like in Easter Europe – russian-orthodox. ‘Easter Europe’ term does not apply to all the countries in that region anymore! – the differences are too big and growing.

I think people are meaning “Former East European” What it used to be for so long time. We all know its central Europe an a map. As we also know Sweden is up North :) But its still a huge difference if you compare Copenhagen and Bucharest. Already 10 minutes on the street in B you can see that you are in “East-Europe” Same with Poland and Estonia etc. Those countries are changing but really really slowly. I.e in Northern Europe we do not have any stray animals on the street, no people begging, and the roads are not full of huge wholes in them.. and you can drink the tap water.
Magda
October 24, 2012 at 5:42 pm
We drink tap water as well in Poland. Go to Paris and you’ll see stray animals on the street, lots of people begging, and the roads full of huge wholes in them, and that’s a western Europe!

For the past two-three years, every time I have watched the photos on this blog, I have had the ardent wish deep inside me that you would come to Romania at least once. I always felt that even if you photograph so many people in western Europe, the U.S. and Asia, this central-eastern European look, this deep, too-wise for their age look is something you can only encounter in our side of Europe. Now I’m moving to London, but I still hope to see photos of some Romanian women on your blog one day. For now, the Polish are a delight.

Good for you for giving Poland some much-deserved love, and attention! This nation is a rising star as far as design and fashion go, and the people have been a fascination of mine, since I grew up in an area heavily populated with Poles. I enjoy your work, please keep going back to Poland and Central/Eastern Europe…..Thank you Scott!

Finally, Scott in Poland! Looking at your book the other day, I was thinking, there should be some Polish accents. Btw interesting to read some comments about ‘magic’ wisdom in the eyes and ‘harsh’ surrounding. Being Polish I wonder what is so attractive now about the country that it is getting so hip among foreigners? Back to Polish girls, I would say they have a bit of Californian attitude but with a better style, less messy and more sharp&casual sexy. Scott hope you enjoy your visit.

POlish girls are simply gorgeous almost no matter what they wear. No matter there are at least 6 of them in TOP 30 greatest models of the ’00s according to Vogue, and almost half of them are Slavs..
