The location of the city and the rhetoric of street style underline the visual and conceptual relationship between Schuman’s work and the discourse of fashion. The notion of the blog as an alternative mode of address is contrasted with the more conventional content of the images.</p></span></span><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><p>Abstract (F):</p></span></strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman,Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman,Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><p>Le présent article examine le style photographique et le blog de Scott Schuman, "The Sartorialist" (Le Tailleur), par le prisme de la photographie de mode. Le décor urbain mais aussi la rhétorique d'un style venu de la rue soulignent les rapports visuels et conceptuels entre le travail de Schuman et le discours de la mode. La notion du blog comme forme alternative de s'adresser à un public est opposée au contenu plus traditionnel des images.</p></span></span></p>
