The arrival of the French and Belgians to the Congo, atthe beginning of the 20th Century, brought along the mythof Parisian elegance among the Congolese youth workingfor the colonialists. In 1922, G.A. Matsoua was the first?everCongolese to return from Paris fully clad as an authentic Frenchgentleman, which caused great uproar and much admirationamongst his fellow countrymen. He was the first Grand Sapeur.? The Sapeurs today belong to ?Le SAPE? (Société desAmbianceurs et des Personnes Élégantes) - one of the world?smost exclusive clubs. Members have their own code of honour,codes of professional conduct and strict notions of morality. It isa world within a world within a city.? Respected and admired in their communities, today?s sapeurssee themselves as artists. Each one has his own repertoire ofgestures that distinguishes him from the others. They are alsoafter their own great dream: to travel to Paris and to return toBacongo as lords of elegance.? Designer brands of suits and accessories are of the utmostimportance to Sapeurs - Pierre Cardin, Roberto Cavalli, Dior,Fendi, Gaultier, Gucci, Issey Miyake, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent,Versace, Yohji Yamamoto ? are their patron saints. Unlike someUS hip-hop gangs who are dressed in similar fine threads, thereis no bloodshed here ? here your clothes do all the fighting foryou, otherwise you are not fit to be called a Sapeur.
