MODALISBOA Goes Digital Focusing On Community
by Adriano B.
MODALISBOA was one of the last fashion weeks we attended where it was still possible to see a live runway show. Even though everything followed strict health protocols and was great to see a mix of live and digital presentations, this new edition taking place on April (15-18) will be entirely digital.
Under the theme “COMUNIDADE” (Portuguese for Community), the organizers of this new edition wanted to pay tribute to the creative people that have made it possible (for precisely 30 years) and have put Lisbon on the map of fashion capitals.
“When we cannot see what is ahead, it is because the solution is to look around us: designers, artists, musicians, photographers, journalists, models, hairdressers and makeup artists, industrialists, technicians, entrepreneurs, researchers and investors, brands, teachers, students, consumers, and enthusiasts. Entrepreneurs, dreamers, local commerce, fair production, human creativity. All visions, all minds, all hands, all voices. Our COMMUNITY.“
It will be sad not to be able to see in person our friends, talking with the designers, touching the clothes, but it is also understandable. It is also a fantastic opportunity, not only for the viewers but also for the designers, to engage in a more creative way of showing and experience the new creations. It is also a way to approach Portuguese fashion to a broader market. And it is part of our job, as part of this community, to support it and make it grow.
