"From Portugal to the World" is the motto behind the MODAPORTUGAL showcase, which will display the uniforms designed for the Portugal Pavilion team.
Signed by the Portuguese fashion designer Filipe Augusto, in a project curated by Miguel Flor, the uniforms were inspired by the Azulejo - a common trait from both Portuguese and Arab cultures. In close collaboration, the uniforms were produced by eleven national companies: Belcinto, Calvelex, Carité, Lameirinho, Marfel, Paulo de Oliveira, Polopiqué, Riopele, Trotinete, Twintex and Vandoma.
The initiative is part of MODAPORTUGAL, a project promoted by CENIT (Portuguese Centre of Intelligence for the Textile Industry) and ANIVEC (Portuguese Association for Clothing and Apparel Industries). Its main goals are to promote and support the internationalization of the Portuguese clothing, footwear and textile industries; raise awareness of fashion made in Portugal; and increase Portugal's international recognition as a supplier of high quality products.
This is an event aimed at Expo visitors as well as local companies in the field of fashion and specialized press.
