Sao Paulo: New Fashion Capital
As we all may know, there are currently five fashion capitals in the world that receive the most credit for setting worldwide trends and influencing popular styles. One of these fashion capitals are the birth place of your favorite look and style. The current top five fashion capitals are New York city, London, Mulan, Paris and Los Angeles. However, there seems to be a new fashion capital that has made its way on the list. This city has even become a potential contender in over taking New York city’s position at number one. A small city in Brazil called Sao Paulo, which is just south of Rio de Janeiro, is catching up to New York fairly quickly. Sao Paulo is known as the fashion leader in all of South America and hosts the fifth biggest fashion week in the world. This small city did not begin to receive much recognition until this past summer when its neighbor city Rio de Janeiro hosted the 2016 Olympics. The hosting of this event increased the popularity of Brazil’s sense of fashion by media being drawn towards this country and acknowledging not only the Olympics itself but all the attractions and cool facts about Brazil; the style of Sao Paulo being one. The style of Sao Paulo is considered to be vibrant, creative and full of attitude. It’s the unique culture and creativity of the youth that differentiates their urban street style from the other fashion capitals. International fashion designers such as Carlos Miele, Pedro Lourenco, and Francisco Costa have admitted to being influenced and inspired by Sao Paulo for years. Could Sao Paulo fashion have an influence on you?
