The 50 Most Stylish Neighborhoods in the World....Miami's Wynwood Listed At Number 6
Almost every city in the world has that one area where cool kids congregate. Whether it's the shops, the bars and restaurants, the galleries and museums, or just some unidentifiable vibe that the neighborhood exudes. These are the places that emerge as destinations for unique fashion, style, and culture. The sudden proliferation of street style photography, Tumblr, and Instagram have put many of the world's lesser known 'hoods on global blast over the past couple years.
But it's more than just a fashion sense that make these 'hoods stand out—art, architecture, and a booming subculture scene are all factors that give some places the extra something that make them more stylish than others.
Paris, New York, and Tokyo may be the first places you think of when it comes to style, but it's time to think beyond. We've scoured the planet to identify the style hotbeds of the world. There's no Google Maps for cool guys, but this is the next best thing. Here are The 50 Most Stylish Neighborhoods in the World.
Part of Miami's Wynwood neighborhood, the arts district is home to over 70 galleries, museums and art collections. It was founded in 2003, and every second Saturday, the community hosts an Art Walk, where showrooms open their doors for the public's enjoyment. There are private art collections such as the Rubell Family Collection and World Class Boxing, or the Fredric Snitzer Gallery to see the work of elite local artists. The fashion district spans five blocks and though it's been around for over two decades, it has been rejuvenated by merchants who aimed to make the area as similar to New York and Los Angeles as possible. Wynwood also has the Wynwood Walls, one of the largest outdoor murals exhibits in the world.
