One of the most popular styles of clothing being worn in South America are those inspired by the Caribbean. The fashion in this part of the world is not just limited to clothing, but it extends to accessories and jewelry as well. What’s a little known fact about South America is that they also have some of the best designers in the world today. The most popular designers have their headquarters in the region, giving them the ability to not only continue to bring new styles to the table, but also to make any of their designs available to people around the world. The following are just a few of the popular South American fashion trends right now.
Floral Tops – Flowers have long been used to adorn the tops of women’s clothing, from the peasant girl outfits that were once worn to the college campus and classrooms of the 20th century. Today, floral designs are still very popular on tops, but with an added flair of color. From bright pinks and purples to deep indigo like those emblazoned with skulls, flowers are a mainstay in the South American fashion scene. Floral prints can be worn with jeans for a fresh and fun look or can be paired with a long flowing dress for a regal yet seductive look.
Sparkling Jewelry – Like flowers, sparkles are still a mainstay in South American fashion. From necklaces and earrings to bracelets and rings, jewelery has become an integral part of women’s fashion. It’s popular for women to wear their birthstones on their wrists, and there are literally thousands of different gemstones available to choose from. They can range from aquamarine to amethyst, so there’s something for every woman. Even common stones such as turquoise and obsidian have made it into the modern jewelry palette of modern South American style.
