We all know the fashion capitals—London, Paris, New York, Milan. Even Copenhagen has earned its regular spot on the style circuit. But what if I told you there’s a new city to watch? And I’m willing to bet you won’t guess it. To save you the University Challenge-style guessing game: it’s Almaty, the largest city in Kazakhstan. And you’re bound to be as impressed as I was after spotting photographer Francesca Babbi’s chic street style snaps all tagged to this surprising location.
On the roster of attention-grabbing looks are statement sequins, fun fringing and sleek neutral co-ords snapped on some of the chicest Kazakh women. All of which proves the central Asian country is bustling with modern fashion inspiration as much as with traditional style—chapan, anyone?
