Style Walking

Comments on "Style Walking"

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:57 PM) : 

Great picture ;)

 

Blogger Elizabeth said ... (6:59 PM) : 

I like all three! Even the girl has something cool going on. The motion the shot conveys is great. Plus the light . . . .

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:00 PM) : 

Nice.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:02 PM) : 

quite the intimidating grimace

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:23 PM) : 

The guy in the backgound seems to be wearing a very nice coat!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:32 PM) : 

LIKE: Lovely classic pinstripe suit. The unicolor approach is well played. The "bedhead" haircut adds a modern touch. Love the simple white pocket square. It looks like he also did a Windsor knot on his tie which is perfect for his spread collar shirt.

DISLIKE: None.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:39 PM) : 

.....sex in motion.......he's HOT!

 

Blogger admin said ... (7:43 PM) : 

just a SMIDGE too tight in the waist otherwise a great cut. The shirt wears like it was made for that suit and check out that posture!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:50 PM) : 

how handsome

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:54 PM) : 

he's too darn hot to be cold like the rest of us mere mortals.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:54 PM) : 

Wow. They sometimes look better walking than in the usual stand-pose position. So candid. You can compare with the various people shown too.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (8:04 PM) : 

You've shot him before, no? He still looks sexified due to some magical combination of cuff, kerchief and coiffe.

mltt

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (8:05 PM) : 

I love this image! There is a sense of bizarre fiction: like this guy is a beautiful android dressed in a perfect fit suit...walking Manhattan aimlessly.

 

Blogger OzzyGimenez said ... (8:23 PM) : 

New York is the most beatiful place of this world,i think so.

Nice blog and greetings from Spain

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (8:56 PM) : 

I just wish you'd venture out into the other boroughs... and I don't mean going to Williamsburg or Park Slope or Fort Greene. I mean, shit, come to Flatbush or the South Bronx or Astoria. It's not all baggy jeans, fitted caps and Ups. And even if it is... some of these kids do amazing imaginitive things with colors and cuts. And they're not referring to style magazines for the tips either ;)

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:20 PM) : 

That's an impeccably cut suit, but he looks very stiff and uncomfortable in it which takes away from his look.

 

Blogger Butch said ... (9:32 PM) : 

Didn't we see him and this suit previously? Almost sure--no, I AM sure we did.

Nice to see clothes in motion, as it were....

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:47 PM) : 

not usually a fan of double brested suits but the look on his face is awesome and the specific wild hair style is great!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:50 PM) : 

I don't like double brested suits in general and his is tugging a little across his chest. BUT I do love the look on his face, his confident stride and the specifically wild hairstyle!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:54 PM) : 

Is this an image you captured on the street or did you download an expensive ad campaign? It's quite evocative and wonderful

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:57 PM) : 

Perfect man-shape. I prefer the leather jacket in the background though.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:10 PM) : 

Has the double-breasted suit returned?

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:13 PM) : 

Pretty

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:17 PM) : 

he may be the most beautiful man i have ever seen.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:29 PM) : 

this guy always looks impeccable, in this picture he is literally a walking ad.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:53 PM) : 

Wow.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:57 PM) : 

The double-breasted suit is officially back. Nice.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (11:01 PM) : 

if you're not supposed to button the bottom button, why is there? to show that you are, in fact, choosing to not button it-- thus making you a true sartorialist?

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (11:39 PM) : 

i wish i had presence like that.

 

Blogger YFYF.org said ... (11:43 PM) : 

Great DB. I dig the length, erring on the side of shorter, especially for a DB gives it a much younger feel. The strong slant on the high peak lapels are another nice touch. Emphasizes the shoulders, slims the waist. Cool beans.

I think this is the first landscape fashion shot I've ever seen on this blog X-D

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:01 AM) : 

is this a new trend among your pictures? interesting, but i do miss the more upfront and intimate shots than this paparazzi style. nice diversion from the usual though. :)

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:19 AM) : 

hey, its the Domenico Vacca 5th Ave. manager! I love that he is wearing a double breasted suit. It frames the body perfectly, and creates a nice upward visual flow (peak lapels). This man should be a spokesperson for young people wearing double breasted suits!
(why do we shy away from them?)

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:24 AM) : 

Bigger photo please! Oliver always looks dashing.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:26 AM) : 

Is this the Domenico Vacca guy?

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:27 AM) : 

this man has his serious New York streets walk down to a T. With the shopping bag in his hand, it looks like he is walking down a DV catwalk instead of a city street.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:28 AM) : 

one of the most modern versions of a double-breasted suit that i have seen in daily life. good catch.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (1:22 AM) : 

Almost unfair this guy can dress so varied and well that he gets routinely featured on these pages. Does the shop he works in pay him so handsomely that he can buy their product - or is it provided to him? If so, hats off, because he may have one extremely privileged position. I keep believing that only the very savviest and wealthiest of men have the means and wherewithal to dress so...dare I say, highly. I'm not discounting the folks featured here that make style work with pieces that may have been salvaged or bought for a steal - man, I do that. But the material, the workmanship, and the attention to tailoring detail on this guy just screams $$$$. The rest of us have to be like Jude's Alfie and blow a paycheck on one premium piece at a time. Guy in the DB suit (which is not my thing, but hey): if you're reading this, count your lucky stars.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (1:46 AM) : 

he looks like a model.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (2:08 AM) : 

This man exudes confidence. In addition to his impeccably tailored double-breasted suit, pocket-square and all, his posture is his key element.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (2:13 AM) : 

sexxxxy

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (3:41 AM) : 

Another great photo!
I've seen some of your other photos of this gentleman and find and have found him very stylish!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (4:27 AM) : 

Personally, I like more the man in the backround, with the leather coat :)

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:45 AM) : 

nothing special that i can see.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:52 AM) : 

He looks a bit cold!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:53 AM) : 

i'm not sure he has style, at least not concerning his way of walking...
he seams so stiff

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:04 AM) : 

The days when you had to be either a banker or a mob member to wear this kind of suit are definitively over ! Looks AM-AZ-ING !

Blogger Jennifer said ... (7:27 AM) : 

I don't generally like double-breasted coats, but his is so well tailored!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:53 AM) : 

Elegant and classic, a look that always tops my list!...however, despite his slim physique, the jacket appears to be a bit snug in the midsection...

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (8:04 AM) : 

Molto bello!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:34 AM) : 

nice....but it would be nice to get away from 5th ave for a change of pace...

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:03 AM) : 

this picture is quintessential NY. Very impressive shot.

I'll be one of the first to purchase your book--hoping that it is full of these types of great photos :-)

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:29 AM) : 

when I see this level of attention I think of only one thing- this guy works in a menswear store.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:39 AM) : 

Wonderful shot.
Looks like a picture captured from a film...

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:52 AM) : 

Too conservative for my taste. Needs a touch of colour or something else to modernize it except the hairdo. Maybe no tie?

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (11:59 AM) : 

It's the first, and likely only time, I'll ever like the look of a double-breasted suit on a man.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:54 PM) : 

Perfect example that double breasted not only means 50 years or older.
Great shot !

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (1:08 PM) : 

Isn't this Oliver Gerona, the manager of the Domenico Vacca store on Fifth Avenue?

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (2:18 PM) : 

yes yes Oliver very handsome...

 

Blogger marie said ... (2:50 PM) : 

hottie!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (3:22 PM) : 

great, great photo! like a movie still!!

 

Blogger DK said ... (6:30 PM) : 

At first the young man in the very well-fitting suit caught my eye, but I am equally impressed with the my man in the leather jacket. It looks as if he has on black gloves with a brown jacket and a grey scarf. Not colors that I would have put together, but I like it here.

 

Blogger Anastasia said ... (7:39 PM) : 

He looks familiar, have you shot him before? is he avoiding your lens or trying not to be too obvious?
perfect fitting suit - great colour too.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (9:52 PM) : 

classic-ish but heavy on the hairgel.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (11:31 PM) : 

It's his exotic good looks contrasted with the perfect Italian tailoring, that I love. Def works in the mens fashion world.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (1:40 PM) : 

one word: Yumy!

 

Blogger Elle said ... (9:40 PM) : 

He looks fantastic. Classic.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (11:41 PM) : 

That is so F***ing COOL! I Know the Guy in the Orange coat! I'd know him anywhere with that coat, scarf, and stature... Went to college w/him.. he's a brilliant graphic artist from St.Louis, and that blonde woman walking with him is his wife (of 2 years) from Germany! Wow!!!

Oh Yeah.. & the main guy in the shot is looking extremely dapper.
No doubt... :-)

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (1:42 PM) : 

the more I look at this picture, the more I want to wear what the guy in the background is wearing ... great!!

Mr. Suit is pretty cool too. I don't own a DB suit but used to; it was cut with a lower V which annoyed me as my tie would flop out whenever I bent over (which is why I loved that 3-button suits came into fashion then ... I guess that means that, yes, we're talking 90s here).

I've not really seen too many DB suits available, and wondered what that was all about ... and given the number of comments here from people who seem alergic to the DB, I guess it's more unpopular than I thought. I'd love to get a couple DBs to mix things up, provided the buttons are high enough to prevent the aforementioned tie-flop (not a big fan of the tie clip, BTW) ... hopefully this photo will bring a few people around to liking the DB, even if it means messing with that annoying inside backwards button.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:38 AM) : 

Someone earlier in the thread commented that they had seen this fellow before in another photo. I just found him in the previous month's archives, still looking very stylish:

http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4686/1648/1600/Vaccaties.jpg

He has an excellent cut on the suit, and wears the knot on the collar really well. The smaller knots exposing more of the tie around the neck really kills the image of these styles of shirt for me; glad to see him pull it off nicely.
