Cultural Heritage: Fashion & Style

“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”
– Coco Chanel
Travel has a major influence on everything from clothing style to interior design. The colors and culture in a far-away land can influence what shows up on the runways of New York and Milan.

Traveling in style we all know, but do we also know that traveling inspires stylists and designers too.
