Rei Shito – The Look #6
Street style photographer Rei Shito on keeping a cheery spring mood during the cold, dark months of winter
In winter, street style photographer Rei Shito goes looking for subjects who defy the norm of bundling up in sombre colours, and who bring a touch of brightness to the dreary days.
“I remember capturing her on my way to go to the Michael Kors show during NYC fashion week 2014. It was a terribly cold winter, but she gave me an instant spring mood. I always like to wear bright colours and happy motifs, just like her pink colours and flowery skirt.
I think it’s great she’s wearing this during the cold and gloomy season – it makes me feel happy and upbeat. But don’t forget to wear the high-gauge tights like she does, so you won’t catch a cold!”
