As an obsessive Colombian fashion girlie, I’ve been closely watching the rise of Colombian designers, brands, and sartorial artists over the years. Medellín and Bogotá — our two most iconic cities — are hubs of subversive streetstyle inspired by a youth culture with a deep appreciation for tradition. Meanwhile, Colombia’s coastal cities inspire resort wear that reflects the country’s incredibly diverse natural landscapes, while romantic, frill-filled brands take cues from a rich literary heritage.
