Scott Schuman: Streetstyle Color Star New York 2011

Since the early days of streetstyle photography Scott Schuman became the synonym for the perfect combination of an outstanding photographer and an excellent Trend Guide. With his blog The Satorialist he created a totally new genre. His streetstyle coverage of the leading fashion hotspots are inspiring for designers as well as for dedicated followers of fashion. No doubt, our Color Star 2011 for New York goes to the one and only Scott Schuman!

Caroline B: Streetstyle Color Star Paris & Stockholm 2011

Caroline Blomst founded Stockholm Street Style together with Daniel Troyse already in 2005. Two years later they started Carolines Mode which became one of the most influential fashion and streetstyle blogs first in Sweden and then globally.

The duo added a glossy look to streetstyle photography which was only known from editorial magazines or fashion ads before. Today the site together with their iPad magazine C-Mode is one of the most influential streetstyle and fashion trend sites as well as a source of inspiration for all trend fashion & color lovers. Thus Caroline & Daniel receive the Streetstyle Color Star Award for Paris & Stockholm.

Stefano Coletti: Streetstyle Color Star Milan 2011

Stefano Coletti is Art Director, video producer and streetstyle blogger from Milan, Italy. He creates video clips for Independent Style magazine or campaign clips for Relish or Mila Schön. Since 2010 he runs the streetstyle fashion blog TheStreetFashion5xpro where he shows the typical contemporary looks of Italian Streetstyle.

According to wearona´s TFA Milan is by far the most colorful city among the fashion captials and Stefano captures these unique looks with an authentic and genuine photographic style. His work is always a source for inspiration and thus he deserve to receive the Color Star 2011 Award for Milan.

Wayne Tippetts: Streetstyle Color Star London 2011

Already in the 1980s Wayne Tippetts started street photography in the streets of London and it was in November 2008 when he started his blog Street Style Aesthetic. He wanted to bring his voice to the genre of streetstyle and fashion photography, always looking not just for the clothes but for the people who wear them.

Therefore his streetstyle images could almost always be part of editorials in fashion magazines. We love his editorial photographic style, especially his streetstyle pictures of London and Paris mirroring the actual trends in these great fashion capitals. As a consequence he is awarded with the Color Star 2011 for his London streetstyle coverage.

We love her pure and authentic photographic style revealing the latest streetstyle and color trends from Berlin, thus she receives the Streetstyle Color Star 2011 Award for Berlin.

Søren Jepsen: Streetstyle Color Star Copenhagen 2011

Danish photographer Søren Jepsen runs the street style blog The Locals portraying fashion and style on the streets of Copenhagen and on international fashion hotspots. In addition he shoots for international magazines like GQ or Vogue Germany.

In recent years Copenhagen has developed a typical unique fashion style influenced by relaxed and casual streetstyle looks similiar to the those of Stockholm. Søren captures these looks in a pure and genuine photographic way always revealing the actual fashion trends when it comes to print, cut, pattern and color.

The New York City Journal

Graeme Mitchell was born in Manitoba Canada and grew up in Oregon. After studying literature and philosophy he went to NYC to work as a photographer. Convinced by his close friend Benjamin Diggles he started a photographic blog already in 2006 and in an August night with no sleep he took his first street images.

"I began just walking around with my camera at 4am with a few rolls of film in my pocket, shooting free-form, not thinking about it at all, not even thinking that I’d ever bother developing the film. It was simple therapy for the stressed out and sleep deprived." This was the start of his amazing photographic series in the streets of New York named the NYC Journal.

Since this time he became a well known photographer working for clients and publications like Dazed and Confused, Interview, W, New York Magazine, SOMA or Net-A-Porter. We really like his pictures of NY and some great portraits of upcoming painters, photographers, writers and strongly recommend his portfolio site and his excellent blog giving a lot of inspiration.

The Streets of NYC in September were heavily influenced by NY Fashionweek. Phil Oh made a great job for Vogue to document this influence - out of his work we selected our favourite trend look in Mirage Blue, Teal and Brown Rust.

By analyzing the trend images by Mr. Newton or Scott Schuman with our TFA we saw that the change from summer to autumn is reflected in a shift from bold and vivid color to shades of Red (Cerise, Shiraz) and tones in Purple, Camelot and Indigo. To see the complete color palette take a look at our TFA Channel and the corresponding analysis.

Thank you Scott.
