Very nice intensity … love that face! I think the fashion statement is in his glasses. The rest of his get-up seems very Ben-Gazzara-as-trucker — it has a certain amount of timeless charm. Love how you dig up all the variety, Sart!
… and this blog is also educational beyond fashion: Terry, it turns out, is a celebrated photographer, who has a special eye for the exotic and erotic. See http://www.terryrichardson.com … so this snapshot is about a whole lot more than Terry’s glasses.
I don’t think this is about fashion but it’s more about personality. Love him or hate him, he’s crafted a specific look that’s irrefutably Terry Richardson that others are now copying (attention brooklyn hipsters) and a photographic style that more fashion photographers are emulating (attention Frederike Helwig).
And to me, this quality is what makes you a trendsetter.
Haha! So here I am thinking Mr Richardson displays much better sense of humour than Mr Clark and it’s quite devastating to be told the opposite. Oh shucks.

i have a feeling he wouldn’t even know where to look to find this picture of him. Or know why you were taking his picture.

“Ode to a Canadian?”
This one’s very borderline but I think Sart was taken in by the specs, as am I.

This weekend, my dad was fixing the sink, but before he finished, he decided to go get bagels for everyone.
This is what he wore.

Terry looks like Terry has for 15 years. Just like his photography.

I love how the real beuaty is shown by what and how people wear their outfits rather than the beauty that is normally shown.

I personally really like terry’s work and i also like his style, simple but classic, which cannot go wrong.
By this photograph, you just know it is terry. Even if he does look the same for the last ten years, he has done it well.
Just because something isnt daring, it does not mean it isnt stylish.

There is no negative judgements on Terry’s work here, yet there is lots of arguments defending what he does… interesting.

His personal style is urban american with a low brow flare. His work has the same traits;its value might be assed differently by people.

Terry is one cool dude – his dress sense makes him look like a truckie though but his photo campaigns are super cool!

What the fuck are you guys talking about original? He stole all of his ideas off Larry Clark!
