In the upscale neighborhoods of Madrid, members of the so-called "cayetano" movement are often seen wearing loose, floral outfits, unbuttoned shirts, and chino pants, embodying a distinct style that has become a cultural phenomenon in Spain. The term, originally derived from a 2018 song by the Madrid-based indie rock band Carolina Durante, now describes a segment of the Spanish population that embraces traditional values, religion, and, for many, nationalist politics. According to the Spanish conservative newspaper ABC, the cayetanos are not shy about their identity, and their visibility has led to the movement becoming a form of counter-culture in a country where the government has shifted to the left since 2018, as noted by the New York Times. The cayetano aesthetic is not only present in the fashion choices of its followers but also in their political and social attitudes. They are often found at events such as bullfighting at Madrid’s Las Ventas bullring, a practice that contrasts with the anti-bullfighting stance of the current left-leaning government. The cayetanos are known to react strongly when labeled as "racists, sexists, or homophobic" by their political opponents, and they frequently criticize what they see as the excesses of feminism, multiculturalism, and progressive policies. To them, such trends are seen as threats to Spain’s traditional identity. Spanish journalist Raquel Peláez, writing for El País, has explored the rise of the cayetano movement as a new wave of "ultra-Spanish and ultra-Madrid" style that rejects what is called "perrosanchismo" — a term blending "perro" (dog) with the derogatory nickname for Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, and also "wokism," a term used to describe certain progressive social attitudes. In her book Quiero y no puedo ("I want, but I can't," Blackie Books, 2024), Peláez notes that the cayetano movement is closely related to the pijo — a term for someone who values good taste and a refined lifestyle. While the New York Times suggests that clothing does not necessarily define political views, ABC humorously points out that the cayetano movement’s style, including the "fachaleco" — a sleeveless jacket named after the Spanish word for "fascist" — may be a clear indicator of their political leanings. The cayetano movement continues to grow, reflecting a broader cultural and political shift in Spain.
