Description

From the streets of the leading fashion cities around the world, photographer, art director and blogger Giuseppe Santamaria brings together a striking photographic collection showcasing the styles of the modern man. In each city he visits, Giuseppe seeks out the man whose dress sense speaks volumes about who he is, sharing looks that will be a source of inspiration to readers. Alongside the varied sartorial tastes captured on the streets, Giuseppe chooses a handful of men from each city who have particularly caught his attention, photographing them in various attires and interviewing them on their individual approach to fashion. With cutting-edge, street style photography, Men in this Town is an exploration of the current menswear scene across the world's most fashionable cities.

Recently, Guiseppe has become Editor of the new Men in This Town magazine. He is also a regular street style column in Sunday Life Magazine, is a regular contributor to Details.com and is the deputy art director for Good Weekend.
