Streetwalker: Take a Bow (Tie)

Nov 13, 2007 @ 9:30am

Ebenezer, 21, NYU student and fashion intern.

Got Him: On Fifth Avenue and 8th St.

Stalked Him: Because we love a man in a (unique) uniform.

Shot Him: Because his pull-button look is joyfully stylish without somehow seeming formal and stiff - and we adore the brown suit paired with the bold green bow tie!

He Says: "About two years ago, I decided I needed to start wearing a good suit, and I just started doing it. I love them; I got this one at a French boutique in Soho called Juno. I love fashion too, and eventually I want to work at Duncan Quinn. I don't wear a bow tie every day, but... okay yeah, I wear a bow tie like, every day!"

We Say: Dappers and dandies, drinkers of brandies, what do I know of those?

(call the quote, girls...)

oh. my. god. this is the best streetwalker ever! to be honest, i usually find them somewhat lackluster, but this is amazing. the sartorialist wishes he found this guy! i can't believe he is only 21. and his name! if that is really his name, that is SO badass.

The quote is from Sound of Music! "Sixteen going on Seventeen"!

Kudos.

There is something critical missing in the picture. Perhaps a gardening tool. A couple of them. It will add much to the composition. Regardless, you look great!

Sharp. Love the bowtie (though not particularly the color).

His suit is ironically novel. The brown color is stunning, if unexpected. He would certainly stand out in the sea of gray and black two-pieces. [Speaking of which, does anyone else mourn the death of the waistcoat? Sure, hipsters have hijacked it; but how many white-collared employees sport one?]

EBEN!! you look GREAT! i guess working as a sales associate has worked out for the both of us in terms of getting into the fashion industry =)

PS: LOVE that you just chose the bowtie to have the standout complimentary color... it gives a twist to a classic look!
