Transcript

The role Mexican Americans have played in American style is not to be overlooked. While many other subcultures who have contributed to American style only had a moment in the spotlight, the impact made by Mexican Americans has been almost consistent throughout American history. Here are some of my favorite creators on the internet showcasing and keeping these styles alive no that others can learn from them. For all things Chicano, my go to profile is OG Kid. He highlights a lot of different styles on his profile, but it's when he dives into suiting, specifically when he styles the Pachukozutsu, that I really benefit from his content. And if Chicano history is something of interest to you, I couldn't recommend his profile enough. The next profile I would recommend is Tony Naro. I believe he's Tejano, but I love the way that he showcases style. And the eras that he mostly focuses on are from the mid twentieth century all the way through the present. If you're ever trying to incorporate aspects of Mexican American style into your own wardrobe, I would go to his profile to study the fine details best to make sure you get them right. Next up is the vintage chap. While the focus of his profile generally revolves around his love of doo wop, he dresses in a style that I often see overlooked by a lot of other creators. And that's the period from the late forties to the early nineteen sixties. He's really doing a lot to keep the collegiate style worn by Mexican Americans alive. So his profile doesn't just offer great music, it also offers great outfit inspo. Last better certainly not least, we have Cousin Vinny. And just like the vintage chap, he often showcases eras of Hispanic dress overlooked by a lot of other creators. I mean, notice him sporting that kind of late 60s, early 70s look here. Mexican Americans have played such an impact on heritage Americana. And we're really lucky to be living in a time where we don't have to rely on history books to study these styles, as there are many creators working day in and day out to keep all of these styles relevant for us to enjoy.
