“As City of Angels makes abundantly clear, though, there’s really no such thing as an ‘ordinary’ Los Angeles resident; this city is set apart by its sharp and distinctive street style, and Benjamin skillfully captures its evolution across the various zip codes and demographics that make L.A. one of the most diverse cities in America.” — Vogue
“City of Angels captures the often overlooked style of Los Angeles, a robust collection of individuals and fashions that manages to do the near-impossible task of synthesizing the multicultural style of a sprawling metropolis.” — GQ
“With ‘City of Angels’ the world is invited to understand that L.A. style has never just been about the clothes. It’s about the way people move here, the way they contribute to the city and each other.” — LA Times
