Comments on "On the Street......Vintage in Black & Red, Sydney"
LOVE the boots - gorgeous!
I absolutely love red and black together! I hope they come back as a big trend)))
such characters! really great great photos!!

they are so brave. non-conformist!
I love the skirt! Big! And I really adore Sydney- I've been there a couple of times and I must say that its uber fashionable!

The lady look fab. Are they Alaia? Is the man a waiter ort is it some kind of attempt at humour?
that boy loves red and black haha http://www.penylane.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=50798
Stunning color combination but hard to pull off - might come out too costumey. Thankfully, those two in the photos successfully pulled it off! :)
Is that a piercing shadowing his lip?
Those boots are fantastic! as is his gorgeous jacket!

Dancers?
They both have Spanish elements I think - the jacket somewhat and the skirt. Black and red looks powerful and chic.
Sydney? I would have guessed Spain. Cool looks.
one of my favourite photos (bottom) so far.
the saturated deep red in both looks are gorgeous, though the first guy looks a bit too waiter meets bullfighter. the theatricality works much better in the second look - i love her lacy boots!
i love that tie in the first image. i just wrote about these (for women) and found a lot of awesome styling on lookbook etc. - i'm glad people are taking the tie away from it's old Avril Lavigne image (in the case of girls)
Bull fighter!
matador!
flamenco dancer!
i love the veins in her hand.
i cannot get over that bow.
i feel like people often neglect the balance of femininity in things.. little things, like bows, can totally change the look of an outfit. i miss the days of bowties!
You know what I really love about that picture? That her coffee cup matches her skirt - but exactly. The right shade of red and all.
Although, realistically, the whole look appeals to me: the colors, the polka dots and volume of the skirt against the straightforward colors/textures/fit of the top half, the detailing at the top of the ankle boots. I like this a lot. Rockabilly and vintage style executed well.
Wauw. Love the spanish-looking skirt. :-)
On him: No (too "look at me!"). On her, gorgeous! And it is probably because the skirt, the bolero sweater, and the boots (Alaia?) have scalloped/filigree edges to them. The perfectly executed scarf on her head tells you: yes I know I am wearing an attraction-grabbing outfit and I know I can pull it off. Jorge from WPB
i love the spanish feel of both the outfits! esp. the guy!
Great outfits, love them both. The woman's skirt is really nice.
The modern/city mariachi looks very good...& the flamenco inspired lady is gorgeous, I love her boots... Both are so cool..

delinlee is delovely.
I like her style, her boots and her skirt... I'm not so sure about the boy :)
nice pics!
I saw that lady a few times at RAFW and she looked equally amazing every day.
It's refreshing to see someone who makes an effort, and does not disguise it behind a messy "i've just thrown this on" look even though everyone can tell they spent hours ensuring the rips in their stockings are perfectly placed.
I love the bright red. The gentleman looks like one of the band members from The Horrors or a bull fighter. The woman looks like mini mouse, she very elegantly pulls off the bow on her head without it making her like really young.

the guy looks like a valet or a concierge.
Sorry ;-) But wear is the Bull?!
Are you sure this is Sydney and not Sevilla?!
I like the lady in the red skirt. It's a combination that might overpower some, but works on her because she's so comfortable in an outfit that loud. It's too bad there weren't as many shots of Melbourne, although I must say that this winter in Melbourne has been a bit drab. Everyone is wearing black, maybe it's because it's cold and dreary and we all have SAD.
I'm a fan of this blog. Thanks, Sart.
Great!! He looks like a matador and she´s so Frida Kahlo!
This guy looks awesome, Mixing extreme dress up with a relaxed street style. Cool!
That first photo looks like the lead in a Flamenco musical version of "No Country for Old Men"...
I have never liked the combination of red and black: somehow, it looks crude to me. But that is a completely irrational opinion.
And I absolutely covet her boots.
I'm a huge Sartorialist fan, but I must confess that I've found the entire Sydney sequence a bore--not a single snap is comparable to virtually anything from Milan or NYC. Moreover, how about more pictures of sharp-dressed middle-aged men? Enough already with the emo types! Thanks.
I LOVE the man's outfit - I want to wear it - every bit of it!
guapissimi!!!!!!!!!!!
tradition and folklore meet heels and slim cuts...
wow!
i thought it was spain for a moment! love the red!
very spanish.
ooh...i love his matador look and her vintage senorita look...
they should do the tango together...it'd be gorgeous!
The guy looks like he could whip out a red cape or a mariachi guitar at any minute!
It's funny, the detailing taken in isolation looks quite feminine, but the overall effect isn't... I guess the top half is pretty well anchored by the dark belt/trousers on the bottom.
are you sure you're not in spain?
"que venga el toro"
The girl pulls it off in a costume sort of way. He I think is actually in a work uniform right? I mean, come on?
Color is amazing in the pictures, the light is fabulous. Regarding the outfits, i hope they were working there or there was a reason to wear those clothes... just not my cup of tea.
The guy looks like a really cool waiter
UPPSSS! very spanish -.*
The first guy reminds me of Jermaine Stewart, circa 1987.
oh, I love his jacket and want to steal it for myself.
The top one is amazing!
I am loving all the red! Such a powerful color and so suited to vintage looks!
omgvintage.com
her look is pretty romantic and consistent.
he is on some: 80s take on 60s hair with a KFC/ Teddy Boy tie and pants, waiter's jacket,French cuffs. so many competing directions keep it from being fun or great and make it a great, hot mess.
good try though
OLE!!
matador and his señora! I like them
looks very Barcelonian matador...
the guy = el matador!
I really liked these images... thanks!
I like the sense of humour in her dress and expression. She seems so at ease with the world...
in love with the alaia boots!
great colors. And he´s got cool hair!
Come on...her I can understand. But he's gotta be a waiter or something, right?
Really like the guy's outfit!
i love the outfit of the guy in red... its definitely inspired by gossipgirl in a weird way but i absolutely adore it... its so blair waldorf with a hint of rock n roll
Alaia or Mollini boots.. Who cares? It's the whole look, not the brands.
Wouldn't have thought you would find him at the markets, though. And who'd have thought anyone but Colonel S could rock a tie like that?
He's not me, but soooo much better than the bland stuff too many people wear for assumed cachet rather than building their own style.
Black and red are such strong colors, and together they are often too much for me.
Are those brass knuckles in the guys pocket?
more red on men - oh yes!
the first picture is sooo cool.
They are both stunning! Love the lady's skirt and boots!
J'adore. The long bow and cropped jacket, the polka dots and lacy boots....Parfait!
the boots are great...they remind me of some my mum had during the 80's that i used to secretly try on! delicate cut outs/eyelets like leather lace ...LOVE.
Woaaaahhhh! I love this sort of thing. Bright with awesome retro silhouettes! I think our friend needs to go up a pants size, though... ^^;;;
i love it, both outfits look great
I saw him around the city on a trip to Sydney a while back. He wore a similar outfit and he really caught my eye. What a coincedence that you happened to capture him on Sart!
The woman in the polka dot skirt, scares me.....but in a good way. What I love about your photos, is that aside from being gorgeous and thoughtfully composed...
There's also a wonderful Diane Arbus/Weegee subversive quality to them.
Dare I say, French Vogue meets Cindy Sherman?
Bottom line, I love your work.
xxoo Steve, in Chicago
HEY TORERO! LOL
#1 is costume.
i adore the pics ... but are you sure that's sydney?!?!?!
Yay for Miss Linlee, the Alaia boots are divine, great to see someone so comfortable in such a powerful colour.
those alaia shoes are belle as
Lovely shots with a great vintage feel. Miguel (top photo) is always so stylishly dressed and I'm proud to say - yet another Brisbaner!
The girl wearing the polka dot dress and fab Alaïa boots instantly made me think of my trip to Spain...very beautiful but strong outfit.
This look is so typical of the Spanish folklore!!! When are you coming to Madrid??? we would be delighted to have you here Sart!!
This look is so typical of the Spanish folklore!! Gorgeous. By the way, when are you coming to Madrid Mr Sartorialist? We would be delighted to have you here!
cool spanish style!

remembers me an Hermès carrè
Ole! Ole! style, just they need the guitarrista and some passion! :)
Waiter uniform or not, that jacket is so damn stunning. I love how vibrant the red is.
I love the woman's look! So Frida Kahlo inspired!
The first almost has a bit of the "ew" factor, not sure why, but still fascinating. Very personal. The second is fantastic - creative and adorable. I love how much they show the two personalities!
Reminiscent of FRIDA. Especially the head piece! Beautiful.
Aww Miguel. A terribly stylish lad. I've had to good luck to work with him a couple of times. There's never a time he doesn't look perfect. A bunch of us friends went out to dinner here in Brisbane at this cheap, dingy little chinese place in Fortitude Valley and he wore a full-length kilt. Don't ask me to remember who made it, but it was perfect.

another brisbane person in the first photo. hello world from brisbane
Sell the polka dot lady photo to a coffee manufacturer. I can smell the coffee looking at it!
love the lace detail on the boots and the red jacket.
TOO costume(y). Keep the boots, LOSE everything else.
anyone who weares ALIA is always a styleish woman to me! those boots are killer... not big on the ensamble but those shoes totally make up for it! ALL HAIL ALIA!!!!
wondering why you took so many Sydney shots and only a couple of Melbourne shots when you visited Australia. I have found the people in melbourne to be much more stylish, fashionable, innovative and creative!
Oleeeeeeeeeee!
Very Sydney.....outrageous...
Can't wait to see the Melbourne scene...bet it won't all be galz in black
good ol JMAquilian
I love her. And she's totally in aus- note the empty hand where a cigarette would dangle if she were in Europe.I also really like the bare legs with boots. Brave, and totally worth it. p.s Devastated not to see more Melb pics.
This woman is a total trip.
But I cannot for the life of me envision that she represents real life in Australia.
Here she's into a flamenco theme. Fun. She'd be a hit in Paris.
Great shots did they live in the same gypsy caravan too- very flamenco indeed! JUST WISH WE COULD SEE WHAT SHOES THE GUY IS WEARING? I am curious were they boots?
it feels style
love the new

is this the same lady who appeared a couple of times on garance dore's blog?
I think Sydney stands alone in Australia for encouraging such bold colours and style. Would love to know if this woman is going to any swapping meets, what a great style!
I haven't seen any Melbourne yet! Are we getting melbourne pics soon?
Fingers crossed...
oh no no no no he looks like a spanish bullfighter.
The bullfighter and the flamenco dancer. I love elements of each of these. The bows (her in the hair, his in the tie), the brights balanced by black. I'm wondering if there was some reason they were dressed so reminiscent of Spanish history, or a happy coincidence that Sart saw two people embodying this style?

I love her ruffled skirt! It's so chic and cool!
I just fell in love with the boy on the top...great clothes!!
I love the man's look. I've been searching for that tie for a few months now, and can't wait to find it and make it work like he does in the photo.
As for the lady, her dress is so flirty, I can imagine her dancing and doing a lot of spins while her dress follows her in perfect harmony.
The young man looks like my ex-boyfriend... haha.
This woman is exploding with character, irony, and a raw and rustic sort of beauty. I keep coming back to this one.
Very spanish looks! He look like a matador and she's his Rosita...
i love that half the people in the sydney shots are from brisbane!
and i dont understand all the 'waiter' comments. wait staff do NOT dress like this in australia (or at least, very rarely)... i actually want his little red jacket for me.
and sart, that woman is such a find! she looks amazing, beautiful and confident.
stylesightings.com also have some lovely sydney pics from RAFW for those interested :)
are these part of the Australian Fashion week here? - as i can see some latino theme... Btw I love her shoes...!
Ah Linlee! She looks loverly as usual!
Oh those boots! Lacey leather is dreamy. The dress reminds me of Rizzo's prom dress in Grease! Retro, yet there's something decidedly flamenco about it.
That's sweet,she lent him her jacket.
Isn't the guy the designer for Saint Augustine Academy. Love his stuff! Which they had it here in Canada.
those are the alaia boots? Gahhh-so pretty!
http://xazddesign.com
these photographs to me are a little facehunter-esque. more costume-y than the pure class and confidence we usually see on here.
Yo, this is my Linlee Allen !
i love this girl. she's crazy!
i always loved your photos! your the best.
you shoot me one day in paris & i has really impressed!
Merci Monsieur.
c.
The Guy is a friend of mine - let me just say that this is just a SMALL taste of some of the feats of style that this boy is capable of!
He doesn't 'dress up', this is honestly his day-to-day wear.
He wore a suit to my birthday that I would have killed a small child to own myself.
omg is that Dagmar???
Dagmar always a little costumey!
She absolutely owns the red. It doesn't overwhelm nor define her - it simply IS her. Not only is it physically complementary, but the flair expresses a confidence and spice that no other uniform could capture.
I find her stunning.
that skirt is AWESOME so are the boots
Frida Kahlo for the 21st century?
