Garance Dore, myself and Scott Schumann of The Sartorialist
Me and Chris Roman, Garance’s assistant
“I’m a communicator, not just a photographer, blogger or illustrator. How you find the way to show the world who you are is most important,” said Garance Dore at the launch of her illustration series for Westfield at the Doncaster styling suite on Thursday.
I was due to fly out to Singapore but pretty much put the brakes on that when this invite dropped in my in-box- miss the chance to catch up with blogging royalty? Not me.
“Four years ago when I started it was not fashionable to be a blogger. My friends were like, ‘You have a blog, what?! You need to get out more!’ I never thought I would end up here,” she said.
When asked what she looks for in the women that grace the pages of her blog, Garance said that it’s more about the personal appeal of the subject.
“To me I think, ‘I want to be that girl.’ It’s very intimate. It’s not exactly what they are wearing, its more, ‘Wow, she’s amazing!’ “

wow, fantastic LM!
You’re incredibly lucky to have had the chance to meet this pair. Garance’s illustrations are wonderful. And Scott’s work really is indescribable. Assets to the industry.
Just stumbled on your blog, and it’s a fabulous find.
