author

Ellie Uyttenbroek is a Dutch stylist and profiler who co-created the 'Exactitudes' project with photographer Ari Versluis in 1994. Her work involves systematic documentation of social identities through their dress codes and shared attitudes. She acts as a researcher/profiler, identifying specific urban tribes and subcultures—ranging from Gabbers to Rockers—and documenting how these groups use clothing to express belonging while simultaneously seeking individuality. Her collaborative practice is characterized by an anthropological approach to fashion and street style.[3,4]
