The Armory Show 2010

P3061356
Love a painting where I can say ‘nice tie, love how his collar is up’. I shoot what inspires me, love art as if it were a tie itself. In this case i shot this and other pieces that are clothing/fashion related for me anyhow…
P3061354
And the guys that are walking the show looking at art. They are most of the time too cool. In the best way. The coolest rich old dudes almost always have great style at these sorta things. Tweed, wide wale corduroys, double vents, great fits,  Borsalinos, cashmeres, khakis, boat shoes, belted coats, tattersalls and messy hair!P3061374
All this Tattersall and wool, Lovethe ballcap too. If youre wearing a blazer and jeans, it best be a weekend! Since thats the cool guy uniform in NYC these days…

Matt Singer and I used to work together b in the d so I was excited and a tiny bit proud to see he finally launched his own line. We got together recently and he showed me some of his work— long sleeve and short sleeve shirts in two-ply cotton oxford oxford cloth, some sturdy cotton canvas bags, and a crazy assortment of accessories—cotton canvas and suede belts, woven bookmarks, glass ashtrays, tie-dye leather lighter covers, and an eyewear project with Selima and the Thing Quarterly. What I like about Matt ‘s work is his mix of storytelling with design. His work has a distinctly American viewpoint but its feels fresh somehow. Whenever I see Matt he’s wearing something from the wrong season, a salmon colored belt in winter, but it works. The quality of the shirts is spot on, made in the U.S.A. The canvas brief has that elegant simplicity you find in old Longchamp bags. His website also has an interesting selection of short films for sale, a collection of vintage watches and there is a book section that he puts together with Idlewild Books. mattsinger.net
