It has been 20 years of this event! Happy Birthday!
It all started in 1991 as a way of showing portuguese fashion designers and in overall the growing fashion industry.
I went to see the show of Lidija Kolovrat (got the invitation from my fashion design teacher)
I have to say i did not know the designer and it really did not do anything for me... in short words i did not like it.
Why? Well it was hard to watch the show confortably, unless you were in the front row, you could not see the bottom part of the clothes and models. It should have had a rised catwalk or other sort of sitting. The clothes themselves looked as if done by a college student, it had some impressive craft work with all the leather leaves but looked outdated. And the "cherry on the bottom of the cake" was a fur jacket and other elements with fur. I am not a vegetarian or that i think that animals should not be killed but i am 100% against using real animal fur in clothing.
I also have to say that in the pictures of the show, the clothes look better.
Can clothes be photogenic as some people are?
Anyway, i don´t want to sound too negative, good luck to the designer!
I really liked the atmosphere, we need some shows like these to see well-dressed (or not...) people walking in Lisbon!
