Brazilian Prep



















Gentle Reader -

The costumes of Carnivale are the easy icons of Rio de Janeiro. The sunga - the square cut men's swimsuit - is almost as well known. But what about Brazilian Prep looks?

Consider the American Prep look, like the late American poet, Elizabeth Bishop, going south:

- Colors: hot pinks mixed with jade green; light blues crossed with yellows
- Combinations: seersucker and feathers, linen and glitter

However, consider these for evening only. Brazilian Prep is a possible direction for cruise (aka, resort) collections for winter 2010.
