Weekend culture...

Before Bill Cunningham became the pioneer of street style photography, he was apart of another fashion project.  "Facades", released in 1978, is a collaboration between Cunningham, and then neighbor Editta Sherman, showcasing wears from each of their private collections paired with iconic architecture of New York City.
