#Fashion Friday, Alonso Mateo – The World’s Most Stylish Kid


Alonso Mateo is a five year old kid that has SWAG. He’s SWAGGER is on point! The little boy is a mini fashion icon that rocks tailor-made suits, pocket squares, untucked and rolled sleeve shirts, designer denim and designer blazers.

He became an Internet sensation after his mother Luisa Fernanda Espinosa, a freelance stylist from Laguna Beach, California, who has worked for Harper’s Bazaar, put up her son's pictures on her Instagram account. Alonso also has his own Instagram account and boasts with 48,683 followers.

In most of his pictures, he poses nonchalantly, looking away from the camera and smiles charismatically. He also has a few ‘selfies’ which he takes with his iPhone. Alonso wears brands that most of us would dream to own which includes Gucci, Dolce & Gabana Tom Ford, Burberry and Dior to name a few.

See a few pictures below which Alonso (and his mother) share with his followers:

David Tlale’s Menswear Show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Cape Town 2013

We are not done yet with reviewing the spring/summer collections as seen on the runways during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Cape Town. Today we look at David Tlale’s collection. The location of the show was on a closed off bridge in the Helen Suzman Boulevard. The colour palette included sunshine yellow, turquoise, black, white and gold. I liked the suits, but I think the shorts were a little too short for guys. Well done on another spectacular collection David! 

Take a look at the video and the pictures below:
