Consider Advanced Style by Ari Seth Cohen. Recommended by 2 sources.
“This photo-led collection translates a popular street-style project into a large-format book of portraits and outfits tied to experience and age. Its strength is visual: carefully composed shots, bold color, and idiosyncratic dressing make it a ready source of inspiration and visual reference. Its limitation is brevity of commentary — captions are short and contextual or historical information is scarce, so readers looking for analysis or how-to guidance will find it thin. Better as a moodboard than a manual.”
