With a sophisticated and alternative soundtrack, a sumptuous place and this radical proposal, Valentim Quaresma created a  febrile atmosphere for the start of this portuguese fashion week.

The portuguese designer proposed us this collection like armors that transform human in  a warrior and defender, a kind of  gladiator in modern times. The materials used are leather, copper, fafe fur and metals.

RICARDO DOURADO - FALL WINTER 2013/14

"Soweto"(in South Africa) collection by Ricardo Dourado began with white clothes very architectured, strong shapes quite minimal and clean but also sophisticated by the composition and contruction work. How the designer defines his work : "This collection has both urban as ethnic. We thermobonded african fabrics with unique neoprens, made ​​in patchwork and all the different parts are built with overlapping seams, allowing one to see the duality of the material."
