Sangue Novo

SANGUE NOVO is Lisboa Fashion Week’s experimentation and identity expression platform. By developing a close work with all the fashion teaching institutes in the country to boost the work of young designers, it translates as the voice of the new generation, serving as a stage for currents of thought free from commitment. It is a pure vision of conceptual fashion, highlighting new directions in design for sustainability, technology and innovation, promoting a critical discourse and creative practice for the construction of a transparent system.

The competition takes place in two phases. After the selection of candidates — in July — 10 young Designers present their collections in October. Here, 5 finalists are selected, who compete for the awards in March of the following year. During the entire process, the creatives are monitored and mentored by the panel of judges, in order to prepare them for integration in the Portuguese fashion industry.
