Encompassing the rise of the handmade journal and “style zines” and cementing the fact that Brooklyn is indeed the hotbed for talent when it comes to generating new art and literature, Andrew Coulter Wright has graced us with How to be Fashionable or Consume Like Me. All the rage in limited edition at Colette in Paris, and available at just a few other exclusive spots in NYC and LA, Enright takes the reader through a veritable handbook of how to be a cool stylista with a few key phrases and well-placed accessories. He breaks open the iconography that every fashionista clings to come show season, exposing the fact that all we really look for in other fashionistas are some foundational elements — be they verbal or wearable — that makes sure we’re all in the same club. Satire, truth telling, or both? You be the judge. Get it at tyntpress.com.
