Pitti Uomo is undoubtedly a premier men’s fashion event. At Pitti Uomo you can see the latest trends, new designers and companies in men’s fashion, premiering the best men’s tailoring from across the globe, but also the best dressed men in the world. The most accurate explanation I have heard about Pitti is that there you can meet "anyone who’s anyone in the menswear business". And this is true. The atmosphere is unique and you feel like everyone is your friend. Everyone is smiling and having fun and at the same time doing business. The 92nd edition of Pitti Uomo has ended with a huge splash of colour, more than 1,220 brands with booths at the fair, more than 19,000 registered buyers and a total number of more than 30,000 visitors. The ranking of attendance was: Germany at the top followed by Japan, Spain, United Kingdom, The Netherlands, China, France, Switzerland, Turkey, USA, Korea, Belgium, Austria, Portugal, Russia, Sweden, Greece, Denmark, Poland, Canada. The most attractive part of the fair are the people, of course. At Pitti Uomo you can see all dandys from around the world. They define themselves as brand ambassadors, influencers, bloggers, models, stylists, designers and they set the trends in men's style. All photographers make photos of them and you can see hundreds of publications about "Best street style from Pitti Uomo". I also made a bunch of photos and you can check our gallery Pitti Uomo 92 Street Style Looks. But apart from that I want you to see who those people are and what they do, so here I will present some of them.

Through an astonishing series of interviews, Gay Men’s Style will take you on a dizzying journey through shops, bars, clubs, gyms, workplaces and global city streets. Based on the lived experience of gay men of all ages from the UK, USA, Europe, Australia and Japan, Shaun Cole calls for a more nuanced understanding of gay male dress and style. Gay male identities in the 21st century are increasingly intersectional, fluid and flexible, from hyper-masculinity and muscularity seen in clubs and on the pages of gay magazines to self-knowing drag culture and androgynous gender play in the fashion industry. Gay Men’s Style explores these multiple identities and the ways in which gay men self-identify and present themselves to the world through dress. This analysis is set alongside seismic shifts in technology, global communication and gay rights to redress and readdress the subject of gay men’s style in a time of social and sexual upheaval.

Constance Jablonski is the first vixen to break out of the pack, lensed by Txema Yeste for Antidote Magazine’s Fall/Winter ‘Animal’ issue. We presume that creative direction and styling is by Yann Weber .
Pendant dix ans, cet artiste – dont le travail est à découvrir pendant le Mois de la photo, à Paris – s'est posté dans les rues du monde, cherchant dans la foule un vêtement ou un accessoire commun. Résultat : d'étonnantes collections d'individus.
This article is by David Rosenberg of Slate.com - David Rosenberg is the editor of Slate’s Behold blog. He has worked as a photo editor for 15 years and is a tennis junkie. “Started in the late 1950s by the young British working class, the modernist movement embraced a European sartorial sensibility and a love of modern jazz that redefined the idea that style was intrinsically tied to wealth and class. The movement grew in popularity during the 1960s. As the economy fluctuated and America’s worldwide cultural influence grew, so too did the ways in which the mods were defined.” When photographer Carlotta Cardana arrived in London a few years ago, her interest was piqued by a new wave of young mods walking around the streets dressed in the original 1960s mod style. “I was impressed by their style—to me they are quintessentially British,” Cardana said. She found herself obsessed with them and started attending mod parties, where she approached people asking if she could take their photograph. As she saw more and more mods, the questions about them began to multiply in her head: Did they always dress this way? How did their homes look? If they had children, did they dress them in the mod style? She decided to delve deeper into the subculture, one that she found would go “well beyond their appearance” and included their homes, musical tastes, and love of scooters. She began the series and titled it “Mod Couples.” Cardana quickly realized she was more interested in the mod couples rather than singles because of the ways in which their identities would merge—not only through each other but also within the mod culture. She was also interested in finding out if they would be willing to date someone outside of the scene. (She didn’t find anyone willing to do that.) Although Cardana said she has no problem approaching strangers to take their pictures, she found it easier to schedule a time for the portraits by asking the women, since they seemed more eager to have a couples portrait taken. “Guys were harder to get to follow up,” she said. Although many of the couples were in their 20s, Cardana said it isn’t a hipster scene. Although some people she met were interested in the mod scene superficially, others were almost militant in their insistence that the “rules” of tailoring were followed, such as the proper length of a hem or wearing the right socks. As she started to show the work, she received emails from couples who said they were part of the original mod movement, but Cardana decided to focus on the new generation of mods. “I was fascinated by young people who chose to be in an era that wasn’t theirs,” she said. Cardana uses film to take the portraits, saying that it “puts me in a different state of mind” where she has to slow down and think about the process. She asked each couple to select an environment where she would take their portrait, requesting they choose a place that held some significance for them. She has photographed couples in their homes, cafés, and even in a museum. She said the project is ongoing and she has received positive feedback from the series so far. She recently won the Discovery of the Year Award at the International Photography Awards. “What I’m trying to do with my project wasn’t just showing these couples,” Cardana explained. “I was trying to go beyond it ... I wanted to get a glimpse into them, I didn’t want it to look like a fashion or interior design project, and I hope it doesn’t come through like that.”
