Love the long cardi on him with a sweater underneath, like a twin set but not. Is she wearing Zoave pants or just baggy bloomers? They remind me of traditional Thai trousers. Fashionistas no doubt.
the man on the left looks fun. as for the woman’s outfit, it’s certainly creative, but i don’t like that everything is so poofy, creating a great big poofy middle. i think if i were to try to steal some of her look, i would do it with a slim jacket and pants, with those fantastic sweater sleeves poking out.
I know this man!!! He’s a dj and works in a disco called Hd, very glam and fun his “Glitter night” with music and burlesque show performed by legendary Barbarella!
I believe his sweater is Grifoni (Super Vintage), love the asymmetric woven detailing – I have the same one in black… and it’s always coming unbuttoned! Lazy-Belt must be improvised so I’ll try that
I love how they color coordinate. Her textures are great although I find her volume play unflattering. Still, they are both doing something very interesting and appreciable, especially with the colors and fabrics. I just couldn’t ever put myself into an outfit that obscured my frame, but I’m a slim silhoutte person. Nor could I advocate that a man wear a sweater that robe like, but I like that he’s done it.
WOW! What a pair! The Leather man ‘stache with an Aran sweater coat! Her citron/ gray/ bottle green color scheme, harem pants and leggings…Usually my motto is not more than one trend per outfit but I am willing to retire that faced with all this funky chic!
I don’t think she’s a big girl, but that outfit makes her look HUGE. Honestly I can’t stand this whole “volume play” look or whatever you want to call it… oversized tent-like tops with tight jeans or leggins on the bottom. It’s too faddish to survive.
I really like the coat on the girl. I know that when I’ve tried that hip-length it helps to have some volume on the bottom to help show off the coat’s shape, or else my body looks awkward, or the look too trendy for my taste. These coats are hard to pass by because I so love the details- the buttons, cropped sleeves, buckles and pleats (I’d guess because they’re not too much on a smaller piece, in terms of styling and cost to make?).
I love the sleeve on her grey sweater. Full, but not puffy. Perfect. Everything below her waste, not so much. I think she would look really nice if she wore grey tights instead of leggings, so there would be no interruption line on her leg.
To me, they exist at a level above the rest of us sartorial mortals. The daring and panache they both show in combining elements that somehow seem impossible together, yet work so harmoniously, is breathtaking. I bow to them both.

That woman’s pants and leggings look so silly! She should be wearing a powdered wig.
The man looks sleek. But together they look like they are trying too hard. Or maybe I just missed the point of both looks.

I have a cardigan similar to this guy’s. And I’m a girl! Ah, Europeans.

he carries his look better than she carries hers. I love her hair and face – but the outfit is a study in off proportion

That girl is just so cool! The way she poses is just outstanding. She looks comfortable, and confident.
The man unfortunately reminds me too much about a very ugly swedish musician (Alexander Bard), but his reindeer-sweater is really sweet.

Love the sleekness on him and the volume on her- they are a street style contrast study! Grazie Scott.

Maybe I am too traditional, but I can’t stomach the belted cardi on the guy.
But who knows… maybe in two years time, all of us will be wearing them.

Agree with other posters – her sleeves poking out are great. Not so keen on the leggings + bloomers combo.
He’s too cool for school! (Actually, so is she, bloomers aside.)

His reindeer jumper and belted long cardie (almost looks like a women’s style) are adorable. Ditto her jacket and shoes (green!!)
