The Grey Style Project - Nigel Cabourn, Covent Garden

For various reasons The Grey Style Project, recording older men of style on our streets, has slowed in recent months. But here's my shot of Nigel Cabourn outside his just-opened Covent Garden store.

The Grey Style Project - a style leader photographed in Covent Garden

I have a list of older men of style that I'd like to photograph for The Grey Style Project. High on this list was Gordon Richardson, Topman's Style Director, who I've met on several occasions. I'd been planning to ask him if he'd be photographed, but this turned out to be unnecessary as I bumped into him near Covent Garden when my sister and I were out with our cameras recently. A true gentleman.

The Grey Style Project - Grey Country Style

Here's a contribution from a reader. This image was taken by Laurence's seven year-old daughter. His jacket was a present from his wife from Harvie & Hudson and he was concerned he looked too 'country squire'. Whether or not that was the case, I think his daughter has great potential as a photographer and I like the country style (and no, I didn't ask if that is Laurence's house in the background).

If you'd like to join the project (as photographer or subject) to document style in older men, please get in touch or click here.

With thanks to Laurence and his daughter

The Grey Style Project - Breaking all the rules

The rules say that when you reach middle age you don't wear headphones, t-shirts and Converse. Like hell they do; as shown by this stylish man, shot by Carole Evans when we were out on a Grey Style Project shoot in Carnaby Street, London -

In Camera - The Grey Style Project - a new project to document the stylish older man

It's been a while since I posted any street style images, so this is the chance to announce a project to document many of the stylish older men around the country.

This project will record the wide range of styles, tastes and creativity among older men. Inspired by the need to find a style of their own, and fired by the confidence and wisdom of age, many are discovering that middle age and beyond is the best time to express themselves through what they wear..

EDIT - see the Grey Style Project now on Tumblr

This project is in collaboration with my sister, Carole Evans, a professional photographer about whom I've written before when I featured her Retro Girls project here. See also her website here. Carole and I will be showing these images regularly on our blogs. If you'd like to take part in the project, as a photographer or as a stylish man of over 40, please get in touch, we'd love to hear from you.
