Meet Ali. An 83-year-old from Turkey that has been living in Berlin, Germany, for the last 44 years. Ali used to be a doctor but now works as a tailor. He has 18 children and a fantastic wardrobe.
On his daily commute he happens to walk by a cafe that photographer Zoe Spawton works at. He passes the cafe each day at exactly 9:05am. Zoe noticed Ali was always impeccably dressed, so one day she asked if she could take his photo. Ali gladly accepted and What Ali Wore was born.
Although the site launched last August, it wasn’t until a recent post on Reddit that Ali and his trendy threads received widespread attention.
Below you will find a small collection of my personal favs. Be sure to check out alioutfit.tumblr.com for all of Ali’s awesome outfits!
