The Sartorialist

cute! such an interesting cute face

sweater and pose makes this completely adorable. a great location for the shot too.

Not only are her clothes lovely, but the yellow setting really contrasts with her own colours beautifully. Loverly, Sart! : )

she is lovely. she has such a nice face.

Whenever you post someone like this, I always imagine they must be the little people behind the runway that make the magic happen. It looks like she deconstructed the sweater herself, I like how we can see the inside of the construction- it is not just a rip, it is even on both sides. The colors she picked pretty much mimic your man at Prada, below. My favorite piece in this outfit are the punk heels, it looks like she has gotten her money out of them: I always love a well-worn pair of high quality shoes. Jorge from W Palm Beach.

lovely picture!

to me, the background seemed to upstaged her.

Even though she looks intriguing, the level of curiosity of her surrounding surpasses her just slightly. the geometric shapes, the color, the confusion on where this was taken.

I understand mrsartorialist had the best intention to use this background for the subject at hand, the model, but I can’t change the fact that the flight of stairs and the 4 story building jump at me more.

I love the cardigan with the metallic skirt….her feisty red lips add to the overall quirky mystery. beautiful coloring.

ah, this is wonderful. wedges seem to have buckles or something – attitude of boots with class of heels or so i think.

This combination of textures is divine.

How to work at the factory and still have style . . . great photo.

LOVE*
The shape, the colors, the beautifully framed photo: KUDOS.

beautifully executed outfit, gorgeous shot. The yellow is just WOW.

I love the way she uses contrasts: the delicate necklace vs the chunky shoes, and the shape/texture of the sweater vs the skirt (which I really love). And this is one of the best ways to wear red lipstick: with somber colors and natural eye makeup.

Love it! If I were 20 years younger, I would steal this look!

VALERIA!!!! *0*

her name’s Valeria and she studied fashion business at the Marangoni school i think…she’s a great sense of style.

perfect!!!

Love the yellow background and her accent red lipstick. She is adorable!

Clearly an individual who owns her look and wears it well.

Great photo!
I love the crocheted hat/headband and the webby necklace over her black tee.

the yellow building in the background really makes this shot. i know this isn’t a photo blog (per se), but if you put this same woman in front of a brown-brick wall, she’d be just *ok*. in this environment though, she seems to be popping off the screen. only change i might make is to reduce the depth of field by a small amount to make the shape of the background slightly less distinct. it’s the colors that really provide the pop, not the details of the shapes, imo.

Where can I get a hat/headband like that?

i just died
the color in this is amazing.

Beautiful picture; I love the use of perspective here.

She couldn’t look more Marni if she tried.

I envy all the northerners that appear on this blog in skirts and opaque tights and cute, quirky shoes and layered tops… It’s my favorite look ever and it’s NEVER appropriate in my part of FL. You people with your “four distinct seasons” nonsense! :c

Yet another gorgeous shot. For me, this look goes hand in hand with the best interior design. Similar tones and shades, with the differences being in the textures and surfaces.
A look that gets your attention, without a loud print or color!

that sweater is just too big.

But the whole look is so messy!

I love this look. By the way, the shoes are Seychelles’ Under Construction.

her pose and look initially struck me as very child-like and a bit melancholic, almost naive. yet a greater inspection reveals great sophistication and love for details. love it.

So very gamine… I love her face.
I think the look is perfect.
I’d wear it in an instant.
The weight of her shoes balances the layering of her sweater, top, and skirt effortlessly.

When people flawlessly compliment their surroundings, there is a moment of perfection in the world.

Thank you so much for this photo!

beanie hat? check.
lace up boots? check.
a pretty goshdarn cool girl? check.
:)

The red lipstick really zings amid all the neutrals, and adds to the 1920s feel. A sweet waif.

of course, this girl would be at marni.

she’s the marni girl. i wish i was a marni girl!

yep. I’ve got them too ^ got them a year ago.

they have pretty much sold out everywhere else.

I agree that she’s dressed perfect for the surroundings. But what I really love is her meshy hat w/ her meshy necklace…and the silver fingernails are so key.

this girl works grunge and still stays undeniably feminine. love it.

She is doing grunge but in such a gamine way! Somehow her style looks so natural against her features.
Love it.

Vale!! just lovely

I have that exact necklace! A well meaning visiting Italian relative gave it to me years ago, and I’ve never really got any wear out of it (whilst simultaneously feeling guilty about not wearing it as it’s white gold). Design solution! Heart.

I love her. Whoever she is, she is so far beyond…. very smart, very mysterious, very "works" her look and yet a little unmindful of it. Every piece she has on is meant to have a reference and some people who don't think postmodernist might fall into the trap of taking everything for its connotation, as if she's being ironic, but the sharp mind sees her clothes for what they are sans their history. She's not costuming.
