The Fashion Scene in Buenos Aires
Tip your Cecil Sain hat to the Recoleta, Palermo and San Telmo shopping districts.
13. The striking hats and bonnets of Cecil Sain (design pictured) make quite a statement.

Catch the semiannual fashion weeks, and shop the districts—upscale Recoleta, trendy Palermo and colourful San Telmo. Next . . .
