Mix Mayan culture, more specifically from Guatemala, with Miao culture, from China, in an imperial sanctuary in Brazil such as the Royal Portuguese Cabinet. Millenary delicateness in contrast with Latin color.
In Walter Rodrigues' winter collections the characters from these two cultures reveal the inspiration the stylist brought from the two countries.
A collection of contrasts where skirt volume is in opposition to slim pants; the rigid structure of leather contrasting with the fluid georgettes in tops and kimonos.
There is also dramatic black with layered skirts and points of crystal for night looks. More joyful, the sequence of blacks with large and colorful wool flower applications conclude the fashion show worthy of an imperial moment, worthy of the majesty of lines, shapes and glamorous dreams of Walter's faithful subjects.
