Garance Doré

I adore street fashion blogs. Bill Cunningham.  The Sartorialist.  But Garance Doré-- named after its creator, an impossibly chic Parisian fashion illustrator  -- is my favorite of all.  "A friend of mine won't look at Garance Doré because he says it fills him with a longing he can't bear," Virginia Heffernan wrote recently on the Satorialist. "I feel nearly the same way, though I don't stay away; I'm pleasurably overwhelmed." A reminder of the dazzling power of fashion.
