Manchester Street Style



 In another university task we were asked, in groups, to venture onto the streets of Manchester in search of some of the most stylish, striking or unique people and report back with two visual examples in the form of a presentation of the people whose fashion choices that day caught our eye. 

You would presume, like i did, that this would be SO SO easy. However, if you take into account the fact it was 11am on a rainy Friday, you quickly realise It. Is. Not. 



The first example is a very stylish international student by the name of Keith Yeom. Her bold choices that morning caught our eye so much so that another member of my group literally ran after her in an effort to find out more about her style. Evidently it was sports luxe, and despite her citing that her favourite designer was Prada, to me her style that day reminded me of Stella McCartney, in particular the 2013 S/S collection. Mainly due to the blocks of colour and pops of orange. 



Our second fashionista turned out to be a close friend of mine who is currently studying Fashion Design at university, and whose dramatic personal style has always been a cause for admiration. Never afraid to mix and match designer pieces with those from the high street or charity shops, and never afraid to experiment with pieces of different styles, it always turns out fabulous. With style icons such as Pete Burns, Grace Jones and Amanda Lepore, it's easy to see him as an offspring of all three!
