DUARTE: ONE OF THE SPECIAL PROJECTS OF WHITE’S THE NEXT EDITION
It is Ana Duarte, the designer with an illustrator's soul, who places her exclusive graphics at the core of her collection, one of the special projects of this edition of WHITE.
How she takes sustainability into the streetwear world through a bold, energetic and positive stylistic language, stood out to C.L.A.S.S. ecohub’s attention and awarded her as a designer "capable of combining exquisite storytelling with a virtuous story-making" declares Giusy Bettoni - CEO and founder of the international award.
During the Portuguese fashion week Ana presented her 'Reef' collection which draws the attention to the high risk of bleaching menacing the coral reef off the Australian coast. The collection represents marine specimens - through stylized graphics - on parkas, tracksuits and varsity jackets.
Obviously made with technical yarns such as neoprene, obtained from the recycling of recycled plastics and cottons.
