When French Elle ran an article on How to Become Hip in 15 Steps, there was no question about Step 1: have your photograph taken by Face Hunter. Face Hunter is the pseudonym of 32-year-old Swiss-born Yvan Rodic, who began his career with the advertising agencies Saatchi & Saatchi and Leo Burnett before founding one of the most innovative fashion blogs on the internet, which bills itself as eye candy for the style-hungry. Until recently, fashion trends were created by designers, celebrity models and fashion editors from the top down; now they trickle up from the street to the runway, sometimes bypassing the fashion industry entirely. Face Hunter is at the forefront of this fashion revolution as he travels the globe, snapping the most stylish looks in the street and discovering beguiling individualists in some 30 countries. These unexpected new icons of style are gathered together in over 300 photographs, accompanied by Face Hunters sharp observations from the new frontline of fashion: the street corner.

Yes, its another street style fashion book full of great photos and even greater inspiration if you are into this particular style. I love this book and like the others - The Sartorialist, Nylon Book of Street Style and What I Wore Today - its great to dip into and you always spot something which you didn't before. Definitely recommended to those who like quirky styles and doing their own thing, inspiration for everyone!

If you want to see really edgy authentic street style, this is the book for you and anyone interested in street fashion. Unlike The Sartorialist, this book is not full of elitist industry types but real people with real budgets and extraordinary flair. It loses a point for not featuring many people over the age of 25 though! But then I suppose it might be harder to find older subjects with that 'edge'.
