Snap! It's Yvan

Meet Yvan The Face Hunter

By Ingrid Kesa, 07 December 2010

Since its creation in 2006, Face Hunter has gone on tobecome one of the most popular and prominent street fashion blogs in the world. Born in Switzerland and based in London, Rodic travels the globe documenting extraordinary outfits put together by everyday people.

Rodic's photographs go to show that the next style icon could very well be just around the corner, waiting at a bus stop or sitting on a park bench. Here lies the beauty of hiswork: fashion no longer works only from the top up, where trends seep into the mainstream from the runway. Instead, Rodic is partly responsible for a small revolution whereby designers look to the streets, taking inspiration from the people who like clothes and manipulate them creatively.

Rodic's book ʻFace Hunterʼ brings together 300 photographs from his blog archive into a more tangible form. To have Rodic sign your copy of the book, or to ask him a question (“why are you so good looking?” is one that springs to mind;“why are you so cool?” is another) head to Ariel Books in Paddington on Wednesday the 8th of December at 7pm.
