Though I'm not a fan of fur, she is most certainly very chic.

She's a D I V A ! Girl GO!

Stunning!

love the hat.

There certainly appears to be plenty of fur around at the moment! Beautiful mix of textures and colors.

staying warm in style for sure

Two shots of fur practically one after the other? Surely we can't consider fur stylish???

I like this. Fun, flirty, new, chic, and, of course some excellent glasses. This shot was captured very nicely. I love all of her eccentric accessories, too. They make me curious about what is in the shopping bag.

What a goddess. I like the femme fatale-ish pallete,

Great Style!!

Something about it is devine. It's the whole look. I first thought "WOW!"

Now THAT is interesting. I love when an ensemble makes you look twice and stare. That is what real fashion is all about. When things are put together that you wouldn't think could go together. Love everything about this. Quirky, chic, elegant, and def. interesting. I wonder what she is listening to?

She's carrying so much that she looks like a bag lady
….but very fierce one
lol

It's like she came here straight from 80s! Love it!
Let's grow up later

Oh la la!

This is the best Startorialist picture that I've seen for a while. This woman has it going on. The bracelets make this look more modern… and her coloring is fabulous.

Absolutely wonderful! The epitome of a woman in fashion.

She's a hot mess. not in a good way.

Doesn't this cross the line into costume for anyone else?

she's so classy and bold. i really like her attitude! and she had that lanvin paper bag in hand too. wow!

Wow! Talk about a luxe look and fierce attitude. I wonder what on her iPod?

I see so many pictures of her -It's always kimonos, fur and turbans… Don't know what to think of her style. Slightly contrived maybe? Or am I overlooking something?

i am devotion

I love the guy behind her!

I don't know why but I NEED her to be walking a little dog. Maybe a poodle or a chihuahua.

I love the Lanving bag colour!

stupenda

ah this fur is bloody gorgeous, its killing me!

This is vraiment chic. Very Parisian. Love it Love it Love it.

That was FURR-FECT! :D
Great shot Sart

I have no idea where to begin. In your book I think you have section titled "Visually Greedy" or something to that effect. This images does that for me. I love every element – crazy fur with the belt, the mix of the three bracelets: jade, metal and what looks like horn or bone. The hat with the red glasses. The amazing draping bag and lovely blue shopping bag and a hint of red – all topped off with the white iconic iPod wire. I just cannot get enough of this image.

She is exquisite…a Mame Dennis flash forward….

Simply divine. I will dress like a fur queen in my forties, no doubt. It's hard to pull off at 19, but as you get older I think it looks so fun and darling to wear gorgeous furs.

Oh, and the sun glasses COMPLETE this look. What a gem.

One of the many reason that Paris is the epitome of chic…

wonderful!!

Stuff. Stuff. So much stuff to deal with all at once. She looks a bit annoyed by it all. Or perhaps I'm projecting. I'd have put everything in the Lanvin bag just for the joy of slinging it over my shoulder and walking with my hands free. Is that just me?

The one and only Catherine Baba! She came to our school (SCAD) and was a style mentor for our senior fashion show in May! She's amazing!

I had a chance to meet Catherine last year. She is such a style diva. Love her.

Superb! The best of the BEST!
Kisses

Exquisite! I love everything. The colours are incredible. Her fur. The bracelet shapes. That leathery bag that seems to be dripping off her wrist. The Lanvin bag creates a mystery. I adore this photo!!!!

perhaps before you were trying to show your subject's environment, but your images look better now that you have decided to fill in the frame (or crop them more).

as a side note, i have always loved william klein's fashion and street photography. perhaps you are moving into that direction. only tme will tell.

safe travels.

She looks absolutely fabulous.

Love the hat and the bracelets. A beautiful photo.

The perfect Sart photo. Stunning subject, fantastic expression, juxtaposed with chic outfit and somewhat slouchy, old looking purse. Gorgeous shocks of color – the green bracelet, the red lips, glasses and that wonderful magenta pouch (for her i-pod or phone, I assume), the golden handbag and the beautiful blue Lanvin shopping bag. She is perfect, but not to precious…

Stunning, stunning – you never disappoint.

Di from San Francisco

OMG! OTT! Love it!

????????????????????????????

Was it Vuitton or just Marc Jacobs (as in his own-name collection)that did these kinds of hats a couple of seasons ago? Translates very well into everyday wear without looking costumey. So that's what a Lanvin shopping bag looks like! Oh! God, I need to have more money.

Energie

Where is La Baba's bicycle that she is usually seen riding around the Place Vendome in Paris?

Mr. Biddle

Drop dead stylish Cruella Deville.

Jeez…I wish I could wear fur at a YSL show then pop in Lanvin for a quick spree all while wearing my chicest accessories.

http://thefitting.blogspot.com/

love the layers and texturizing of her outfit. I especially like her use of accessories – oh those bangles are great. Are we seeing a fur trend here from the recent shots?

http://www.jkstylehunter.blogspot.com

What an incredible picture. Marvellous.

Candid. Her style is great.

http://betweenlovehate.wordpress.com

Oh, my! Very old movie in glam – very now in style.

La Baba,
La Divina…

Snazzy photo. Clearly the anti-fur patrol is taking a well deserved day off.

Pangur, pageviews are stylish, and posting images of something that's controversial = more money for The Sartorialist, which is always in fashion.

Fabolous. Just fabulous.

A little bit too 'Norma Desmond' for my taste

spectacular.

So pretty!

i almost thought this was jeanne beker!

A look I only wish I could pull off!

Oui Oui My Cheree!!! Speechless!!!!

mysocietynewyork.com

awesome pic. but I'm really against fur clothes.. the dude right behind her looks great too.

LOVE…LOVE…LOVE…

She looks great.

i absolutely adore her. fantastic photo!

Yes, channeling Cruella Deville is oh so chic.

Love her bag and glasses, so pretty :)

NOW THIS IS PARISIAN CHIC!!! I'm in love. I have no words. Please take more photographs of this woman. Why we have not seen her on you pages before is a travesty.

Let's be honest. That's not a hat, it's a turban. And she? Is pulling it off. Awesome.

hopefully she bought a new handbag at Lanvin, right? That one she is carrying looks dead.

very nice!
Catherine Baba i presume!
i'm gonna somehow steal this outfit (when it's Winter again in Aus) and recreate it….actually more like steal the look. But i'd probably wear faux fur not the real deal.

how FABULOUS!
her hat/sunglasses/lips
are MAGNIFICENT
YUMMM

the accessories just make this… the bangles and the sunglasses and perfection! plus the bag that she's carrying is fantastic… I love this picture

bold and beautiful lady!

isolda

looks like we've taken a time machine to the past! really nice! :)

… awesome … she must be having so much fun!

I love this look. Its so high fashion!

http://myobscuretaste.blogspot.com/

She clearly shops at Lanvin; and looks good doing it. =)

makes me really sad when I see such s beautiful lady in real fur…..when I believe everyone should know better..

Wow! What an elegant women!

http://www.abitoffahion.com

her hat is incredible, and all that bangles she manage to carry off without looking like a accessories worker.

very nice!!!

http://www.thetragicallychic.blogspot.com

Wow – she seems to have all the world draped over her arms.

Contented luxury…

This lady even has the YSL attitude, thou I see she has been shopping at Lanvin…:P

kiss

J'adore!

So stylish! She would have been an easy one to photograph

Oh god, it's the cigarette bleating all over again, except this time it's about fur. Tedious.

I think this woman looks not only interesting, but rather fab – her jade bangle and blue carry bag are lovely accents.

she looks incredible. strong character and personality coming out in spade in her look. love it.

She's all the elegant Parisians that came before her: Josephine Baker, Juliette Greco, Simone de Beauvoir, Loulou de la Falaise, Coco Chanel, even Edith Piaf…

I adore this photo—thank you so much for posting it! Catherine Baba is my new official style icon. I adore her use of red here, as well as the fantastic textural contrast of the sleek belt against the rich fur…and the hat—so perfect. As far as photographs go, this is my favorite of yours by far.

I love catherine baba's eclectic style!

http://diyainherstilettos.blogspot.com/

The hat and the bangles are divine.

I love her ! I'm so jealous !

I like the shape of the blurred figure over her right shoulder. But of course she's interesting too!

Iconic unto herself

What makes this outfit standout? The answer: The blue Lanvin- as well as the brown leather bag.
She is trying too hard with this outfit.

This is what I imagine of the Pais women!

http://findingfashionland.blogspot.com/

Very 20s, with 70s chunky glasses and an iPhone. It works.

Chic!!!

The picture did exactly what is was meant to do…make you think and so I did…

I adore Catherine Baba! She looks like she's from a different era. One of my goals is to look as chic and collected as she does when she's riding a bike in heels.

I'm sorry to say this look seems contrived to me. I get an unnatural and self-conscious vibe from it.

LOVE THE BLURRY GUY ON HER LEFT, HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN PHOTOGRAPHED TOO :)

In love!!!

Fabulous photo -
Fabulous subject –
The jade bangle = signature…

the style [icon] i aspire to be one day <3

Gorgeous!

We love the outfit and the photo.

Great!

close to perfection

she is the definition of chic. she's so rock and roll. love mademoiselle baba.

http://www.dustyandcheap.com

that mink is amazing!

http://brklynview.blogspot.com

In one word: Perfection!
And she obviously just bought some other fabulous style item at Lanvin… well done!

You know, she should really get some sort of prize for this. She's FABULOUS.

I'll start by saying I know diddly about fashion. I check the photos here from time to time cause I enjoy the suits some fellows wear. I've seen a few here with people wearing fur. Is it real fur I wonder? Is fur becoming popular again? I've seen comments from folks who say they'd wear it. Like I said I don't know about fashion but I do know a bit about trapping. I'm from a smallish town in Eastern Ontario called Bancroft (8-9000 people). An outdoors course I took in school included a portion where you spend a week working with a local trapper (part of obtaining a trapping license). Now I knew some folks in the area still did it. You can't make a living doing it (where does the retail money go I wonder?), but you can get some decent pocket cash. Now I'm no activist or anything. I go deer hunting in the same area just about every fall but let me tell you folks the way these animals die ain't exactly humane and it sure isn't pretty. Aquatic and small mammals fare the best. The way their traps are designed, hopefully the animal’s spine will be snapped when they're caught and they'll die instantly. Aquatic mammals (beavers, otters, muskrat) traps are placed underwater and if they're unlucky they just get caught and eventually drown. Land mammals (foxes, fisher, wolves) are caught in various types of "leg hold" traps. They'll wait (suffer) over night till the trapper comes the next day whence they are shot. Sometimes an animal may chew through its own leg to escape. It will die later of starvation or predation. When we were out on the third day a fox was caught in a trap. The trapper asked if I wanted to shoot it. I'm not particularly squeamish so I said "Ok". Even then, (I doubt very much I could do it now) I had a hard time reconciling the fact that I wasn't killing this animal for meat or a necessary warm coat. I was killing it to become a fashionable accessory. This was mitigated somewhat by the fact that it is kinder to kill the animal at this point than it is to let it go.

The way I see it, unless you can go out with that trapper and shoot that screaming fox in the head (oh yes, they die in abject terror), then you shouldn't be wearing that fur.

I can, and I don't.

Glamorously posh

catherine baba is amazing!!!!!

Whoa!! What can I say!! Retro chic sophistication at its best!!

la imagen es increible, me gusta mucho esta pagina, saludos =D

Where did she even get that fur!?
It's awesome!

How she utilizes accessories is great (the hat, bracelets, her sunglasses..)

She is a High Fashion gal!

wearing fur i think, is a big mistake, it's animal cruelty i dont even want to start because i dont want to be rude, but i think we should be more responsable about it,i love fashion but i dont wear animals, its just what i think i dont want to offend…ihope everyone understand
