Giovanna De Pontes
Giovanna De Pontes is a 23 year old Sydney-based designer with a focus on tailoring and menswear. Giovanna was raised in Australia but she was born and is from Brazil. Her Brazilian cultural upbringing, and a range of musical influences from Samba to American Soul has greatly informed and inspired her design identity.
Meet the Designer
My journey into the world of design commenced when I was very young. Since I was a child I have always loved music and fashion. I knew that design was something I wanted to pursue after discovering the strong ties that clothing and style has to music subcultures, perfectly tying my two loves together. I began to create garments when I was teenager, but it wasn’t until after high school when I began to truly pursue design. In 2024, I graduated with an Honours in Bachelor of Design in Fashion and Textiles at UTS, and I have been working as a bespoke tailor ever since.
Tropicália
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.
