The Sartorialist

Scott Schuman announced today that he will be releasing his first book in the U.S. on 12 August 2009, based on his incredible fashion photography site The Sartorialist.

The Sartorialist began when Scott Schuman felt a growing disconnect between what he saw on the runways, in magazines and what real people were wearing. It was an attempt to bring back the balance. From the streets of New York to Italy and from Moscow to Paris, the book is an anthology of his favourite images from his travels, accompanied by his insightful commentary. It includes photographs of well-known fashion figures alongside people on the street whose personal style demand a closer look.

Schuman was named one of Time Magazine’s top 100 design influencers. The paperback and Bespoke Edition can be pre-ordered here.
