Nova Friburgo: capital nacional da moda íntima

Abstract

The present study addresses the construction of the Intimate Wear Pole of Nova Friburgo, tracing its evolution from the emergence of the first factories to the consolidation of the city as the National Capital of Intimate Wear. The main objective of this research was to chronologically synthesize and organize the events and milestones that delineated the path to national recognition. In methodological terms, the research utilized bibliographic surveys, with expressive contributions from authors such as Araújo (2003), Manangão (2007), and Botelho (2022), in addition to analyzing documents, news articles, and photographs. In this manner, the study revisited the paths that led to the city's consolidation, approaching, through a historical and careful perspective, this pole that drives the local economy and the lives of its workers.
