Everyone's working their angle, and the Manhattan Bridge isn't even the main character. #fallstyle 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle is a witty dispatch from New York City's most photographed street corner. The cobblestones of Dumbo are gridlocked, not with taxis, but with content. Under the towering arch of the Manhattan Bridge, a cast of fall's most fashion-forward have claimed the street for their own, each working a different angle while pigeons step politely around them. A yellow cab idles at the edge of the frame, unbothered. New York has seen it all before. Victoria Tentler-Krylov created this cover for The New Yorker's Fall Style & Design issue, drawing on a sketch she'd carried around for nearly a year. In her own words: "The main idea is to poke gentle fun at the young teenage wannabe Instagram influencers who flock to specific 'Instagrammable' spaces in New York City: Dumbo, in this case. The whole image is, in a sense, a capsule of the Gen Z style in 2022." Her warm, layered illustration style renders every character as a specific type, every detail a small joke for those paying attention.
