Last Saturday, COOK was honored to host Scott Schuman of The Sartorialist, Garance Doré and Ouigi Theodore of Brooklyn Circus for a reception, Q&A and signing of Scott’s fantastic new book, Closer. Stopping in to visit us before a bigger signing over at the Barnes Foundation, the crew, joined by Ouigi’s beautiful girlfriend Gigi, were all extremely warm in greeting Philadelphia fashion fanatics who’d come out to hear what makes the popular street-style photographer tick. Handling a comprehensive Q&A led by Ouigi thoughtfully and passionately, Scott also took the time to sign everyone’s books and talk to the crowd, all of whom came dressed in their best — a truly great showing for Philly style!

Everyone at COOK was so happy to be a part of the event, which was also recapped exquisitely on both Ouigi’s and Garance’s blogs — definitely check it out. The Sartorialist himself made it very clear that he loves everything Philadelphia has to offer and looks forward to returning soon. We look forward to seeing him!
