Bill Cunningham At New York Fashion Week: The 20 Best Instagrams Of The Master Street Style Photographer Himself
From Editors-in-Chiefs to up-and-coming models, the majority of the fashion world will all likely react the same way when asked about Bill Cunningham: gushing with delight about how adorable and wonderful and incredibly talented the legendary street style photographer is. Before the acclaimed documentary about the man behind the camera came out in 2010, only those in the industry really knew who he was. But now, the shy and reserved Cunningham has risen to celebrity status, becoming as sought after on the NY streets as the most followed fashion bloggers and "It" girls.
Cunningham may dislike all the attention he gets (he hates getting approached by people on the street while he's on the job), but we can't help ourselves, especially on Instagram. There are over 10,000 photos with the hashtag Bill Cunningham. He's just so darn cute in his blue jacket and khaki pant uniform! Cunningham's outfit may not be as exciting or varied as the other people you may follow during NYFW, but in my opinion, it's just as fun and inspiring to look at. Here are the 20 best street style snaps of Bill Cunningham himself.

Bill And His Coffee
I’m convinced Bill likes his coffee the way he likes his fashion: simple, in the best way possible.
