The rise of street style photography

A good 10-minute documentary looking into the rise and interest around street style photography. It seems to me like a fascinating phenomenon that’s gone beyond The Sartorialist and Garance Doré or Bill Cunningham style photos of people on the street and into a different way of looking at fashion: rather than taking cues from famous people, we take our cues from what others around us wear.

It’s also crept into things like #OOTD, mood wearing, the idea of the daily life as a stage for sending messages through clothes.

Isn’t it interesting that because of places like The Fancy, Svpply, Pinterest and curated tumblrs, there’s now a whole generation of people who could say that the internet dressed them and taught them all they know about style?
