The real rough draft

As promised yesterday, I present to you the rough draft of my piece on Wynwood (for my double page spread). All I have left to do is type up and summarize the interviews and start on the actual formatting of my magazine (so in translation I really need to get on that InDesign flow because this is due on Sunday).

Enjoy....

        Wynwood. A culmination of the arts packed into a frenzy of nightlife and a warehouse district. One of Miami’s many gems, where the art is found on the side of buildings and the street is a runway. Making it a perfect location for quality street style starlets to wander about, and for me to capture these starlets in action.
Wynwood is a great outlet for self-expression, every person had their unique vibe and character, this was reflected in the clothes worn. On this particular night print was everywhere, on the walls, on rompers, on shorts, shirts and pants. It was print galore and the fashionistas of Wynwood were sporting it. With this rainforest of colorful print, also came the army of minimalists, decked out in all black and sleek ponytails. These minimalists also came in light washed jeans and white blouses, but the biggest must-have of the streets of Wynwood had to be sneakers. From Adidas Superstars to New Balances, I saw this sneaker trend on every man and female with feet, the use of these shoes ranged from casual wear to lavish ensembles. The sneaker trend has not only taken over the streets of Wynwood, but high-fashion runways of Paris and Milan (so I would recommend snagging a pair of these sporty shoes).
        Wynwood was also hat central; fedoras, baseball caps and the casual dad hat stood out in a wave of heads. The fedoras were worn with more relaxed styles and mostly by females, they gave off a very bohemian aura, with some beachy waves in their hair and strappy sandals. The baseball caps were sported backwards by the male population, following the recent sporty trend seen on almost every runway, these backward caps served as a pop of either color or design to their mostly plain outfits. The casual dad hat (which has to be my top pick), was worn forwards, framing faces very nicely. I saw these hats on both males and females, giving off a 90’s vibe that has recently surfaced (for the typical tumblr hipster this hat is a staple).
       Of these hundreds of strangers, I happened to stumble upon a select nine and without any notion of their names or careers, I photographed and interviewed these people on their style and fashion choices.
