What fascinates me the most about tailoring<br />

is that is very organic, you are always<br />

learning something new especially techniques.<br />

Experienced tailors will give you tips or you will<br />

read a book and merge these techniques with<br />

your own knowledge to develop your own way<br />

of constructing garments. The luxury market is<br />

fascinating and the transition between working in<br />

womenswear and menswear happened naturally. I<br />

always liked to work with tailoring cloth and I try<br />

to create my pieces using my knowledge in men’s<br />

and women’s fashion while bringing together the<br />

details, materials and values from one gender to<br />

the other. Being able to construct a garment is a<br />

very interesting experience for new creations.<br />

I started to focus my work in menswear<br />

when I lunched my own men’s accessories brand<br />

developing ties, bow ties, cuff links and umbrellas.<br />

Through my brand I was able to meet some<br />

tailors in Brazil but this was not enough for me,<br />

I wanted to have experience and learn from the<br />

best professionals in Savile Row. As one of my<br />

teachers in University used to say “We don’t like<br />

fashion we are passionate for clothes”.
