What Happened

Tropicália explores the cultural significance of colour and the deep influence music has on personal style and self-expression. Inspired by Northeastern Brazilian celebratory attire, Congolese Sapeurs, and the styles of jazz musicians, the collection subverts traditional European tailoring with bold colour and unconventional suiting.
