"I know I took all of the pictures, I remember taking each one, but I still can't believe I took all of the photographs."
-Scott Schuman
Image by The Sartorialist / Scott SchumanYay, Scott Schuman finally got his first printed paperback copy of his book "The Sartorialist" from Penguin, there is also a limited-edition hardcover version as well. I can't wait to get both! The book, comes out August 12 in the US.
Scott Schuman just wanted to take photographs of people that he met on the streets of New York who he felt looked great.
His now-famous and much-loved blog, thesartorialist.com, is his showcase for the wonderful and varied sartorial tastes of real people across the globe. This book is a beautiful anthology of Scott’s favorite images, accompanied by his insightful commentary. It includes photographs of well-known fashion figures alongside people encountered on the street whose personal style and taste demand a closer look.
From the streets of New York to the parks of Florence, from Stockholm to Paris, from London to Moscow and Milan, these are the men and women who have inspired Scott and the many diverse and fashionable readers of his blog.
After fifteen years in the fashion business, Scott Schuman felt a growing disconnect between what he saw on the runways and in magazines, and what real people were wearing. The Sartorialist was his attempt to redress the balance. Since its beginning, the blog has become hugely admired and influential in the fashion industry and beyond. Thesartorialist.com is consistently named one of the top blogs in the world. A self-taught photographer, Schuman shoots for publications including French Vogue, American GQ, Fantastic Man and Elle, and a growing list of advertising clients. Scott has also shown his work at the New York photo gallery The Danziger Projects and appeared in the GAP Style Icon campaign in the fall of 2008. He has been named the number one fashion photography trend by American Photo magazine, as well as one of Time magazine’s top 100 design influencers.

The Sartorialist: The Book Has Arrived!
Well what can I say - the book is starting to roll off the presses.
Penguin just sent me one of the first printed copies.
It is so crazy to actually be holding the book I have been working on since January.
I know I took all of the pictures, I remember taking each one, but I still can't believe I took all of the photographs.
Tracy is holding the paperback version, and soon I will have a copy of the limited-edition hardcover with slipcase to show you.
This has been a labor of love. Taking the pictures, editing the pictures, arranging the pictures, doing most of the writing while I was still in Phoenix after my Dad died. It's hard to put into words how one feels looking at their own work presented like this - so I won't even try.
I hope you enjoy the book and I will keep you posted about the book signing tour, the SartoriaLUST pop-up shops, and any other events surrounding the launch of the book.
Below are links to some sites where you can pre-order the book. It comes out August 12th in the US, and worldwide by early September.

“More people notice me in The Sartorialist column than in any other publication or website. Obviously the place to be seen!”
—Mario Testino
Scott doesn’t just take pictures, he captures emotion. He is not just a photographer. He’s a historian marking the feelings of this generation one photo at a time.
—Kanye West
During all the fashion weeks I am approached by many photographers, Scott is the only one who can ask me to cross the street for better light and I do it! I love his portraits.
—Carine Roitfeld, editor of French Vogue
Everybody loves being photographed by Scott Schuman. If he spots you in the crowd, whether in New York or Paris or Milan, it’s a kind of validation. And everybody likes to see who he has photographed for The Sartorialist, because it’s proof of his critical eye.
—Cathy Horyn, The New York Times
