The Cuban model and influencer Rachel Arderi has once again demonstrated on social media that she not only exudes elegance but also embodies the vibrant essence of Cuban style. In a recent Instagram video, Rachel showcases three impeccable outfits: a sleeveless brown ensemble paired with heels and a luxury handbag; an urban beige look complete with a cap, dark sunglasses, and a matching purse; and finally, an all-black outfit featuring an asymmetrical design, a belt, sunglasses, and a coordinating clutch. Each stylish look is accompanied by a text highlighting a frequent comment on her posts: “You dress so nicely and look so classy, it doesn’t even seem like you’re Cuban.”
What followed was the real highlight. Through a humorous and cheeky transition, Rachel reappears in a completely different outfit: a short sporty set, her hair tied up in a bun, a mop in hand, and a defiant expression, with a song playing in the background that only Cubans would truly understand. Accompanying this moment is the caption: “What were you saying? (Now translate it),” a straightforward and iconic “repartero” response, true to her authentic Cuban spirit.
With this post, Arderi not only defended her identity but also cleverly dismantled the stereotype linking Cuban culture with a supposed lack of sophistication. Her witty comeback was celebrated by thousands of followers who praised her authenticity and humor.
Whoever said a Cuban woman can't be both classy and bold?
