Daniela
Barros is a Portuguese fashion designer, her brand represents
minimalism and draws attention to the feminine vs masculine
discussion. Each of her garments ooze with personality. Her
consistent minimal but chic theme is seen throughout her
autumn/winter collection. Still following from last years
minimalistic theme, Baros kicked off her show with tranquil music and
a neutral palette. The models sillouttes were draped in soft colours
such as creams and whites. Daniela delved into current trends such a
backpacks last season it was all about the oversized clutches. This
year her autumn/winter collection was all about shoulder bags a lot
more practical than back packs. She injected colour in her collection
with dark navy tops and a lot of layering which I’m sure is a
season favourite.
