Spring in Düsseldorf

Michael McDonald: I Keep Forgettin'

What's in the stores: Cotton suit at Anson's

I like the suit's color. But black shoes? No way!

On the street: Guy from Munich.

I like the chino's color. But what is it? Corn? Mustard? Pretty cool, though.

What do you guys and girls think?

On the street: The knitting beggar.

This guy is one of a kind. You'll meet him everytime you take a walk on Königsallee. Sitting on the ground, dressed in rags and knitting sweaters, cardigans or scarfs.

When you take a closer look at the picture you will notice that he wears a few different layers, all knitted by himself. Another way of bespoke tailoring.

Are you able to make your own clothes? Of course not, 'cause you don't have to. But could you, if you'd have to?

Damn!

Dapper as always: Managing Director of Torquato Düsseldorf.

Please check out his Crocket & Jones penny loafers.

Always a pleasure to talk to you!

A sunny day on Kö: Gypsy accordionist.

He wanted me to pay for a picture. So I got him en passant. Greedy MF!

GDS: Thank you very much!

Dear readers,

the last weeks were packed with loads of work, leaving me unable to post on a regular basis. Long days in the office, too much time at airports and on airplanes and my spare time to spend with my little family.

So I was pretty excited to attend this friday at a client & agency meeting on Düsseldorf's famous shoe fair GDS with the desire to do some awsome pictures of the next season's footwear.

But: No chance! I wasn't allowed to do one single shot of shoes although I managed to get a press credential. Too bad! Seemed like everybody was affraid I could be some kind of chinese copy guy in disguise. Ni hao!

So the only pics I can show you are a few impressions of the fair grounds tubes and a giant Chuck (I like pretty much). Too bad...





Chuck, Chuck, Chuck

On the street: Guys with shades.
