Description

Following the runaway success of his first book, pioneering street fashion photographer Yvan Rodic (better known to his fans as Face Hunter) is back with a travel diary that chronicles a year-long face-hunting expedition to more than 30 of his favourite fashion cities. Follow him to the world’s most stylish cities, which range from the established fashion capitals of New York, Milan and Paris to exciting new style centres in Africa, Asia and South America and even unexpected gems such as Baku. A young child in Tokyo wears fantastic striped sunglasses; trainers are paired with cowrie shells in CapeTown; a woman poses in a fake leopard-skin coat outside Milan Cathedral; blue suede shoes pound the streets of Beirut… Forget the catwalk. You never know what will catch Face Hunter’s eye.
