The football jersey has found its way from the field to the closets of cool girls everywhere. While there are many teams one can rep, no other country has a more iconic uniform than Brazil. As of late, their yellow and green garb has became a micro-trend of its own.
The Brazil Football Jerseys Trend, Explained
The jersey, dubbed as the canarinho a.k.a. the little canary, has gained notable popularity over the years. Everyone wants to dress like a winner, and Brazil constantly dominates the FIFA World Cup, having brought home five titles in the past. All members of the team have brought the South American country pride, each donning their respective numbers on their backs.
Believe it or not, the dri-fit shirt has even made its way to Fashion Week. When the finals match-up between Brazil and Mexico commenced in 2018, Adriana Lima stepped out wearing Neymar's #10 jersey. Mind you, the supermodel was just fresh off the runway from Schiaparelli's couture show!
The yellow and green hues of the piece have also been weaponized in Brazil's recent history. During former President Jair Bolsonaro's time in office, the jersey was a symbol of his far-right movement, much to the chagrin of democratic parties in the country.
Upon taking over in January 2022, President-elect Lula de Silva vowed to reclaim the canarinho, stating, "We can’t be ashamed of wearing our green and yellow shirt. [It] doesn’t belong to one particular candidate. It doesn’t belong to one particular party. Green and yellow are the colors of 213 million citizens who love this country."
Since then, the jersey has experienced a significant resurgence, even for non-sports fans. With the rise of the athleisure trend, which birthed the TikTok-favorite blokette aesthetic, the top quickly became a wardrobe essential. Gals like Hailey Bieber, SZA, and Kali Uchis have all been spotted rocking it.
Of course, our local style stars weren't going to miss out on the hype. See how they don the Brazilian staple below.
