Fashion Crumb…. Ramp1885

“Exploring the untapped fashion reservoirs of the world”

With well over a decade of writing, fashion, and PR experience under her belt, Toronto-based Hina Ansari has launched a new blog that strives to explore fashion in every hidden corner of the globe. Ramp1885, aptly named after the very first catwalk in the world was used in 1885, boasts an international team and a roster of contributors, all with a common aim to showcase “how fashion is translated, embraced, and redefined from across the hills, valleys, oceans, and deserts of the world.”

Peruse the site for some international fashion inspiration in the Global Street Style section. From Singapore to Tunisia, the site showcases some of the world’s best ensembles. The City Style Snapshot captures the regional and cultural nuances that are special to each metropolis. With city spotlights on Tunis, Salvador Da Bahia, and Copenhagen, Ramp1885 truly shines the fashion spotlight on the entire world (and not just on the usual suspects, like NY and Paris).

For all fashion enthusiasts and culturites, we highly recommend you check Ramp1885 out for yourself!
