Pedro MourãoPedro Mourão

Pedro Mourão is known for his prodigious attempts to create new silhouettes for men. His æsthetic is impeccable and it is always refreshing to see his astonishing perspective.
   His last collection was one of the best and, this season, he has outdone himself again.
   The collection, My Oliver Twist, was a recycled version of his last collections, giving a new meaning to social consciousness. Pedro is an active designer who defends the need to reinvent what you have in order to preserve nature and stop excessive buying habits.
   With this idea in mind, Pedro dismantled past creations, mixed them and incorporated new elements to his collection. The message behind the concept was, ‘Do I really need this?’


Filipe Faisca
There plenty of buzz about Filipe Faisca, as he had partnered up with Christian Louboutin for his summer collection.
   The Romantic Blurred collection was impeccably structured, often creating geometrical contours that celebrated the circle shape and form. In the collection, circles intercepted among themselves and simultaneously with the body.
   Black, white, beige, hot ash, rose skin, red and old rose were the main colours chosen, in fabrics such as mikado, crèpe georgette, silk and panama in viscose. •
