noir streetstyle 27/4/09
lately, i haven’t been drawn to streetstyle blogs quite as much as i used to. i often feel as if well-known photographers like facehunter, sartorialist etc have found their style and target group & stick to it & therefore don’t surprise anymore. or maybe the novelty just wears off. i don’t know.
so when i stumbled upon Amsterdam’s dam style i was more than pleasantly surprised. sure, the dutch have style, but what struck me most was the heavy usage of black in many of the outfits. my favourite, naturally!
loving the pants! can we actually call them pants? anyway, top-notch graphic effect, ideas on how to recreate this?
cute woolen cape plus patent clutch makes a pretty chic combo. though a model-esque face certainly does no harm.
one of the best jackets i’ve seen in a long time! everything is perfectly right here, the crisp white shirt & the braided belt give just the right amount of contrast, me thinks.
Sonny Groo just kills it. does it get any better?
all pictures courtesy of dam style. check them out!

a lot of very bold black// draping vs. geometric cuts// shiny vs. rough materials
& rocking fantastic eyewear trickles my fancy these days.
