Alongside Paris, Milan, and Tokyo, New York City is one of the fashion capitals of the world. That may be true when you're walking around in Midtown, but when you cross the threshold of the fashionista boroughs, you enter the Wild West of the fashion world where there are no rules, no boundaries, and certainly no faux pas. NYC is a lawless land where you wouldn't even catch a second glance if you wore rat shoes on the subway and nobody would blink if you had 3-foot-tall liberty spikes atop your head. 

Many folks are fashion-forward, making outfit choices in the morning that make them stand out from the rest of the crowd, but when do these absurd fashion choices cross into maniac territory? In New York City... Never. 

Like the flashy tropical birds of the Caribbean, NYC knows how to take a step out and a step up from the competition. You do you, sis! Scroll to enjoy some pictures of New Yorkers in the wild doing what they do best: Making a name for themselves on the street using their greatest props from the closet.
