Garance Dore

Garance Dore

#4 in Fashion and Clothing

Description:   Garance Dore began writing her blog in June 2006. She is an illustrator and journalist and she thought that beginning to write a blog would give her more contact with her audience. She started publishing a few drawings and then began adding brief texts. She discovered that it was a pleasure to write little snapshots of her life. If she talks mostly about fashion, it is because it has been one of her passions ever since she was a kid; she was raised reading her mother’s glossies, trying on her incredible Mugler and Alaïa outfits, and living vicariously through her fantastic 80s. Recently she began adding streetstyle photos on her blog. She shoots them in the street or around the shows during the fashion weeks. It is a way for her to further express what she likes in fashion. Garance's blog has led to commissions with Vogue Paris, Elle, and other fashion magazines.

A different perspective of the fashion world

September 27, 2009

Garance Doré attracts those ones who visit her blog
not only with her incredible photos, but her personal
comments about each of them. She manages to put into
words what many women may think or experience when
looking at the designs worn by slim models and the real
world.

Her posts, a mixture of her own illustrations and
shots that show the street style of the world fashion
cities, delight whoever has some interest in fashion.

She shows a different side of the fashion world and I
believe that is what makes her blog so attractive.

Garance Doré captures the best of the world's street
style

April 27, 2009

If you have not met Garance Doré via her blog yet, go
there now. Garance not only writes about fashion in
stylish cities worldwide, she also documents the street
style of these cities with photos and drawings. Her
writing is so warm, candid, and personal, the opposite
of what I expect from the fashion world, and she
manages to bring this same personal warmth to her
illustrations, both by pen and camera. Garance’s site
is available in both French and English, simply click
the small tabs in the top right corner of her page.
