Fashion in Argentina
"the latest cultural trend is to be unique. to be part of the exquisite VIP section of society lays on the fact that those who belong are not mass manufactured, not mass consumers, but elite consumers, one of a kind people.
the outside appearance of a celebrity cannot be now purchased at a department store, for they customize their look, their style, themselves.
nowadays clothing and fashion are approaching this conception of production.
each item, each shirt, skirt, sock, shoe are kind of unique but not in a couture way, but in a more casual way."

However this never took place, and during the 1990s this incredible building was turned into a shopping mall.

Knight Ridder Washington newspaper has broadly developed this matter throughout its pages lately. Other major American papers such as The Times have also began to inquire about this new and interesting global world phenomena that is so appealing to average culture lovers Americans.
Since the crack down in 2002, Buenos Aires has resurged from the ashes as the Phoenix becoming a major world pole in terms of culture and investments. And it’s not only about the money bringing more money, for the city of Tango’s unique flavor in terms of Latin and European perfect blend shaped in the best Argentine feel interests in far more deeper ways than profitable investments.

A true sense of “Argentine” has developed as an outcome of the last breakdown. Sensed both by locals and visitors –even more those who from visitors become newcomers, and soon turn to be a typical local Porteno as we refer to those who were born and raised in this portside city.
When importations became too expensive, and the global culture turn to be hard to approach in a complicated financial situation, locals turned to their roots and brought them to the third millennium. Fashion, arts, crafts, culture in general was re-born in a fascinating way. From eating traditions, products and cooking skills to fine artists and painters, the cultural world of Argentina developed at a fantastic rate chipping into the world’s culture basket with its own flavor and at a Tango rhythm.
