Zohran Mamdani, 34, has been sworn in as the youngest mayor of New York City, drawing parallels to Carrie Bradshaw's "chaos chic" style. His victory is attributed to a stylized social media campaign that resonated with New Yorkers seeking authentic, locally-connected leaders. Mamdani's rise is seen as symbolizing defiance and possibility, reflecting the city's current improvisational and forward-moving spirit.
