Thus, casual clothing that expresses the culture, even amid the ongoing processes of globalization, resists and influences the lives of these women. This study is grounded through the standards of the major organs that govern the current Centers in traditional clothes Gaucho Traditions (CTGs) and official contests – The Gaucho Traditionalist Movement (MTG); in works whose authors cited consumption linked to identity and symbolic values in clothing, as several scholars have written about the tradition, culture, regionalism and nativism. In this work, studies on internal and external influences on clothing that group were performed; as well as traditionalist way to consume.
