#ModaLisboa – All photos by Emil Husaint. Filipe Augusto’s SS23 collection is developed from a contemporary perspective of some elements of traditional Portuguese clothing, with details that focus on buttoning using knots, more frequent in items such as scarves and aprons.
The richness of colours, patterns and textures take the stage, once again enhancing the visual identity that the brand has been presenting as a reference to Portuguese culture. The materials that make up the collection come from the reuse of leftovers from past collections and others from deadstock.
Filipe Augusto graduated in Fashion Design at Modatex, Porto, in October 2016. After graduating, he worked as an intern at the atelier of the Portuguese designer, Luís Buchinho.
In 2017, he joined Principal Magazine’s team, as a production assistant and stylist for the fashion editorials. In the same year, he won second place in the I-com Global competition and also the prize for best Portuguese collection in the Fashion Design Competition of ModaPortugal.
In October 2017 and March 2018, he presented two collections at the Sangue Novo – ModaLisboa’s Young Designers Competition. In the first edition, he received an honourable mention and in the second he won first place. In June 2018, he also won the FashionClashFestival award in Maastricht. In that same year, he started teaching at the Modatex textile and fashion school.
