Czech photographer Marie Tomanova has dope style and takes beautiful flicks documenting NYC youth culture. She has a new monograph out at the end of September called New York, New York that I canāt wait to get. (Full disclosure: Iām in it lmao.) Marie has one of the most infectious senses of optimism that Iāve ever encountered, and her first book, Young American, caught fire when it came out in 2019 because of how hopeful and empowered her subjects appear. Like Young American, NY, NY is probably going to sell out and become one of those rare coffee table books that occasionally comes up on Japanese eBay for $1,000, so shoutout to Antwaun Sargent whoās bringing me back a copy from the Rencontres d'Arles photo festival where it was announced.
This early 2000s book takes you from Munich to Berlin London to new York on a wild fashion adventure that opens new avenues of thinking and inspiration! I found the boundary breaking art in this book so captivating! Also lots of pictures!!!
Adam Moss, the former EIC of New York Magazine, talked to numerous creatives off all different disciples to craft this stunning book about different approaches to the creative process.
I went out of town for almost a month recently, and the only thing I wished I had packed was my Goshi exfoliating towel. I hang it in my shower and use it a couple times a week and it makes my skin feel clean clean. Itās the best $15 youāll ever spend on grooming. The one I have is a limited edition Golf Wang x Goshi collaboration, which is hilarious, but Tyler has great skin so it checks out. My other exfoliation tip is Byredo hand scrub, which make your hands feel super soft and smell incredible.
Adidas let Kerwin Frost design a pair of Superstars that look five times as big as your shoe size. How cool is that?? Iāve never wanted to rock size 15 sneakers, but I canāt wait to get a pair of Superstuffeds. Iām just happy that a company as big as Adidas is letting fashionās funniest dude loose in their design studio. If huge corporate brands must continue making clothes, they should stop making boring things and take risks on mavericks like Kerwin.
I started watchingĀ Clarksonās FarmĀ the other night, theĀ Top GearĀ of agriculture hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, who bought a 1000 acre estate in the Cotswolds in 2008 and then decided to farm it himself in 2019 when the local guy who managed it retired. In the first episode Jeremy buys a huge Lamborghini tractor, which is basically the only triumphant moment in the battle of man vs. nature that follows. You get the sense that Jeremy deeply regrets pitching the series in the first place. Meanwhile I'm hooked on browsing Lamborghini tractors online.
