Billy on Grand Street between Greene and Mercer

Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.

Today's Street Scenes subject is Billy, shot on Grand Street between Greene and Mercer Streets. Feel free to vote on whether you like or dislike his outfit below. Your choices are 'Perfection!,' 'So close,' 'I feel strangely ambivalent about it,' or 'Who did this to you?'

Billy made all of his clothes himself. (You can find some of them on his blog, Elements of a Cynical Union.) His boots are Givenchy and his favorite store is Barneys.
