A 40-Year History Of New York Street Style

We've always dressed for an audience. Rarely hidden behind steering wheels, anxious to escape our tiny homes, we've strutted and pranced and collided--the mainstream bumping into the subversive, the Birkin bag next to the B-boy--since before there were sidewalks.
