An English man in New York

Tuesday, October 19th, 2010

Every inch the English gentleman, Hamish Bowles is the perfect subject for a photography exhibition celebrating British men and women living in New York City.

As the ‘European Editor at Large’ for Vogue, he is renowned for his charming sartorial style. British photographer, Jason Bell, took his portrait wearing a Prince of Wales three-piece suit from Jasper’s Menswear Collection.

Bell says he enjoyed meeting and shooting Britons from all walks of life - “I went for a walk in Central Park with Sting and for a cup of tea on Kate Winslet’s roof terrace.”

The exhibition ‘An Englishman in New York’ is now on display at the National Portrait Gallery.
