Every student of Tulane University has heard this statement, and it perfectly sums up the experience of attending school in NOLA. It's impossible to talk about Tulane and its fashion scene without first understanding the city that encompasses it.

When I tell people what school I go to it's often the same response; questions about Mardi Gras or how often I go to Bourbon Street. What most people don't know is that the city is so much more than just a place to go out and drink. Entering New Orleans feels like stepping into another country because there is truly no other city in the U.S. like it. The first thing I noticed aside from the initial blast of heat while leaving the airport, is the diversity in the city. The diversity has been perfectly described as a "pot of gumbo." The city can trace its roots back to Native Americans, Africa, France, Ireland, Spain and more and these influences can be seen everywhere, from the citizens to the architecture to the food. The people of New Orleans are outgoing, free-spirited, welcoming and eccentric, creating a fashion scene unlike anywhere else. Fashion in NOLA has been thriving in recent years, especially since the start of New Orleans Fashion Week. Numerous designers have popped up in the city and new boutiques open all the time. It's only a matter of time before the city is known for its style along with its food and music.
