ModaLisboa’s “New Blood” platform spotlights Portugal’s next wave of emerging designers in a future‑facing showcase.
Sangue Novo — “New Blood” — at ModaLisboa continues its mission of uplifting and discovering Portugal’s rising fashion voices. This edition, titled “Made in Portugal,” brought together five standout finalists from schools across the country, each presenting a tight, thoughtful mini‑collection before a jury of editors, stylists, and industry insiders.
The creative cohort included Adja Baio, Ariana Orrico, Xavier Silva, Mariana Garcia, and Mafalda Simões — a dynamic mix of perspectives shaping the next chapter of Portuguese design. From experimental silhouettes to conceptual storytelling, each finalist delivered a fresh point of view rooted in craft, culture, and forward momentum.
Captured through the lens of Marc Medina, the behind‑the‑scenes energy reveals the raw excitement and creative pulse that define Sangue Novo’s role within ModaLisboa’s ecosystem — a space where new talent steps into the spotlight and the future of fashion begins to take shape.
