Street Style Photographer Discovers World's Biggest Hipster

And we're not sure he has any idea.
|

A street style photographer has unearthed one of the most hipster men to ever walk the planet.

Staff from the Sydney Morning Herald were shocked to spot self-confessed "mystery blogger and jazz kitten" Samuel Davide Hains and immediately stopped him for an interview.

They soon discovered their suspicions surrounding his beret and 'Feeling Myself' tote bag were correct. They had - in fact - found the world's biggest hipster.

Hains' photograph and accompanying interview will now go down in history as one of the most naively pretentious examples of modern day hipster style.

Whilst speaking to the Melbourne native, the photographers discovered a few fascinating facts.

Hain's favourite place to shop is K Mart: "I like to like to re-imagine chain store garments and pair them with high end fashion, like my Chanel cape".

Chanel cape. Let those words settle in.

Hains describes his style as "bucolic socialist with improvised elements (like jazz)". Sometimes he just wears "something random, like a lab coat!"

He admires the widely renowned fashion sense of Marxist revolutionary Leon Trotsky and theoretical physicist Albert Einstein. But is also inspired by "places and ideas".

"I spend a lot of time down at the docks and source inspiration from the architecture," he said.

What was Hains wearing on the fateful day he was 'spotted'? Osh Kosh B'Gosh overalls he "found in a vintage store in Tokyo", a "beret given to me by my dear uncle", a black turtleneck from Uniqlo, Nike trainers and a tote by his "favourite feminist provocateurs" Ladies of Leisure, with the slogan 'Feeling Myself' - "because self love is underrated".

Hains truly has so much to teach us.

Brussels sprouts are great, but hipsters, you have turned them from a cool vegetable to an unstoppable, inescapable craze. Now they're so trendy we bet you're over them too. (credit:Simply Recipes)
Kombucha(05 of22)

If you're able to lie to yourself and others so much that you can convince yourself that kombucha actually tastes good, you are a true hipster. If you are willing to grow the slimy culture in your own home, you have successfully achieved something all hipsters strive for but few actually realize: complete alienation from all other humans.
Bacon(06 of22)

You can like bacon, but you can't own bacon. You have to recognize that the WHOLE WORLD likes bacon too. Liking bacon does not make you tough, nor does it make you special. (credit:Mike Kemp via Getty Images)

From salads to smoothies, kale is everywhere, and hipsters, you have commandeered this leafy green in the worst way. Despite what you may think, it's not going to solve all your problems. (credit:Grace Clementine via Getty Images)

Tacos(11 of22)

Tacos, of course, aren't exclusively or originally a hipster food. Hipsters, however, think they invented the damn things and own the rights to any and all iterations of tacos, for all time. (credit:avlxyz/Flickr)

We know you'd eat a corn dog if it was labeled artisanal. Do you see the error of your ways? Well, we guess you'd eat a regular corn dog too to be ironic. But you can't win with corn dogs, so give it up already. (credit:Facebook/Murray's Cheese)

What ever happened to cinnamon sugar doughnuts from the farmer's market? Ok, that sounds pretty hipster too. But not as hipster as a matcha green tea doughnut. (credit:Facebook/dough)
