[Street style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2) exists anywhere and everywhere, and the Francesco Giusti Sapologie photo series captures Congo-Brazzaville's own [unique fashion sense](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by). Following [dapper and eccentric gentlemen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pieta) in this region, this series takes an interesting look into a third-world country.

Overall, the Francesco Giusti Sapologie photo series stays in line with the freelance documentary photographer's general repertoire: He usually captures people who live in the peripherals of their society.
