Comments on "On the Street......The Sheltering Sky, Governor's Island"
What a beautiful photo, Sart. Love it!
vintage and elegant
Did you go back in time?
Was there a Great Gatsby fan club meeting this weekend? Nice clothes, but they really do fall into the realm of movie costumes.
..love the 3rd background figure.she and the woman to the right definitely foil the gentleman..Perfect images and outfits for the summer
What a wonderful event this is! Would be so much fun to go along; love this era. Great pics.
Woah, is that an orange flower in his lapel? If so, it even matches the lady's necklace perfectly.
I love his glasses.
Beautiful picture! I love it! That dress is beautiful and it fits her perfectly.
Any idea on the watch? Looks like the Patek I've been eyeing for a while now, but the photo doesn't enlarge enough to tell for sure.
Love this roaring 20's inspired look. Flappers, straw hats and flowers headbands ...you don't see them much these days.

...they seem from another time...brilliant!!!
Absolutely beautiful makes me wish I could be magically transported there.
How beautiful.
And she's wearing a hat!
they are gorgeous!
Absolute perfection, with perhaps the one exception of the buttons on his sleeves.
Wow im speechless what a great photo...its probably in the works already but you need to have a published book of your work you are amazing!
That is an awesome jacket he's wearing; I've got to find one.
finally, a bowles fan.
great photo, it's nice to see loose- cut clothing on men
I forget the name of this event, but the theme is pre 50's. I've finally put the pieces of the puzzle together hehe
The only thing I would change is that I would have been there (being a swing dancer at one point in my life).
Thank heaven for summer's day without men in ribbon belts and pants with whales embroidered on them.
It looks like everybody dresses awesomely in the Governor's island
Lovely, I wish everyone dressed like this everyday!!
wonderful vintage art deco stylings.. the best most fashionable era before garish colours were invented *ahem*
I'm in love with the crease in his trousers and with the pin (type thing) in his tie.
I'd love to see what socks he was wearing.
This is very beautiful!
Love this look, fantastic jacket!
So beautiful, since last year I have been waiting for the governor's island pictures.They are so wonderful!
It's really the proportions of his ensemble that make this photo stunning. Not everyone knows how to wear an elegant high waist.
That woman is just not from this age..
Easily one of the best pictures I've ever seen on Sartorialist!
Brilliant.
Brilliant photo and what an amazing couple. I love vintage looks.
i absolutely love this latest series of pictures. im sure im not the only one who wishes he was born about 75 years earlier after seeing these.
the governor's island shots are amazing.
Well, it is a far cry from Morocco but the outfits sure ring true. Linen, yikes, I normally dislike it but under The Sheltering Sky it's a must.
I like that they left no detail untouched. The vintage shades are super.
ah this gives me cosy summer feeling!
I Love this picture. Very elegant and summery. Very inspiring.
Is the title of this post a reference to the "Gilgamesh" anime? I somehow doubt it, but if it is I give you geek-cred.
Whatever event that was looks very cool and fun!
What struck me was actually their postures. They're very "in character". :p
The couple just... match!
This event always looks like so much fun! I wish I could be there!

this is so elegant!
Nothing quite exceeds the charm of soft rumpled linen on a warm afternoon. This man's is perfection. I have never understood why people insist on ironing this lovely fabric into a small-minded conformity.
A photo full os light!
Zepequeña.
nick carraway?
I can barely see the gentlemans sunglasses, but I know that I want them. Badly!
GratefulOne, you are wrong. Yes, for some people it's costume. But many dedicated, elegant people dress like this everyday. It is part of their lifestyle and shouldn't be dismissed as costume. Gorgeous, Sart!
Dear Sartorialist, I am new to your blog, so forgive me if I'm teaching you to suck eggs, but have you ever attended Goodwood Revival in England? It's held in Sept - you'd love it!
I'm so tired of seeing the comments in the vein of "Looks like a costume/Nobody dresses like this/This isn't street style." This event may be an event, but I know dozens and dozens of people who dress like this almost every single day. It's a costume if you have to specifically go out and find pieces to make a costume, and you LOOK like you're wearing a costume. If people LOOK organic and right in these outfits, then it's no longer a costume but a straight up fashion statement.
Char-ming. *love it*
Circa 39!

linen!
This photo is very good looks very fashionable.This event may be an event, but I know dozens and dozens of people who dress like this almost every single day. It's a costume if you have to specifically go out and find pieces to make a costume, and you LOOK like you're wearing a costume.
This is beautiful.

Oh Wow! for me this great shot is all about the accessories. as a photo, i love the way it's tightly cropped.
Lovely photos from this event but I would hardly call them "On the street"!
Love all those photos! Beautiful :-)
I've never heard of Governor's Island. But this 'festival' looks very cool.
Fabulous pictures, beautiful day and chic people!!! :)
maybe the watch is cartier tank?
The style is very different but classic
Love it
U D E S H I London try to go and see also in Milano

So polo
The Governor Island pics really tip over to the "costumey" side. Granted, I love a Great Gatsby look every once in awhile, but I think this is more of a 20's club meeting or something. Thanks!
polo indeed... wooster strikes
Loving his green tie!!
They look like they just have arrived there from a timetravel machine. How they don't belong there.. I am loving the colors. Even her lipstick does not look like a recent one! Loving the couple..
Every detail of the gentleman is perfection. Finding it hard to believe that he dressed himself.
This couple is also a testament to "clothes making the person".
sean and his lady lookin fab! i love it :)
fabulous, fabulous picture. captures such a moment. wonderful work.
my apologies for being so fashionably naive – but, all of these pictures from governor's island have *blown* my midwestern mind... is this just how people live/dress on the island? is it a movie set? it's completely gorgeous but it's almost odd how everyone looks the same... just wondering if there was a reason for it.
They are perfect, down to their shaded spectacles!
This is a beautiful photo. You have captured many things. It is really very interesting how at this moment in time, we collectively seem to be hankering for a gentler past.
Oh he realy looks like Oscar Wilde. Pure dandysme!
Nice Paul Bowles reference...
i love that little peep of light on the woman's chin.
Kool dude ;)
There's no vintage here, this is contemporary! Everything on the gent is very inspiring; the hair, the glasses, the fabrics, the watch, the high pants, the dashes of leather/tortoise/orange, even how the pocket hangs down a bit. Very inspiring and very today.
