Asheville Street Style launches

Posted on by Alli Marshall

Taking a cue from street fashion Web sites world-wide (Paris, Stockholm, Helsinki…), Xpress launches Asheville Street Style, an online photographic record of the unique fashion to be found in our fair city. Read it here or log on to www.AshevilleStreetStyle.com.

Asheville Street Style harkens back to former Xpress print column “Top Drawer,” but with a streamlined approach and an emphasis on the found, DIY, avant-garde and original styles seen on the streets.

Thanks for reading through to the end…

We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we've never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.

We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.

    Is there to be no commenting on the StreetStyle? It looks interesting, but maybe needs some interaction?

    You gotta love males wearing skinny Jordache jeans-actually no you don’t have to.

  3. Piffy!

    none of this is “style”. Most is a regurgitated, out-dated Brooklyn-hipster-chic.

    blah.

    I enjoy seeing the pages from Berlin and London, etc. The bigger city styles are usually much more interesting and clever than the local styles I see in Asheville.
