Resident NYT personal style photographer, Bill Cunningham truly admires New York style. He travels Manhattan on his bike, searching for interesting New Yorkers to photograph. In his thick New York accent, Cunningham narrates a curated slide show (with some socio-political commentary), in a curated photographic series aptly titled, On the Street. His latest slide show features a plethora of animal print. In what he calls, a certain feeling of autumn, Cunningham documents how a trendy animal print garment or accessory can become a fall must-have. Have you got animal lately? Meow!
