Style Eye Candy at Backyard Bill’s
- story Siri Thorson
Of the millions of paparazzi-esque street style blogs on rotation in our RSS feed, photographer William Gentle aka Backyard Bill stands out as a man who likes to take his time. He hones in on just one smartly dressed guy or girl at a time, snapping them in pieces from their own wardrobe, on their own turf, and leaving each of his subjects with a beautifully executed fashion shoot of their very own. To top it off, each one of Bill’s pretty young things fills out a charmingly concise questionnaire. We’ve been hooked for a minute now, and recently Bill got familiar with extended FADER fam Mister Mort, resulting in an explosion of polka dot bowties, technicolored plaids—and the hats, oh the hats!

haha the polka dot tie is definitely an awesome accessory.
not a big fan of hats… ever. i can appreciate them, but i think that men can do without (at least for fashion purposes, sometimes you need something to keep your head warm)
