The show’s title (Woodland) describes a selection
of proposals inspired by the comprehensiveness
and contrasts of nature and which contours in
the idyllic context of a forest. Micaela knew just
what to do to seize everyone’s attention. After a
complete renovation of the runway, where she
turned a black room into an enchanted, central
European forest, 4 Opera Singers debuted a show
that will hardly be forgotten.
Between reality and imagination, the most magical
and enchanting side of this scenario materializes in
looks that emphasize transparencies, satin lustre,
the touch of lace and textures of feather-like details.
The silhouette is of a princess: sometimes long,
sometimes hourglassed. The marked belts and
the volume in round skirts that take on imposing
layers of tulle, and silk tails that oscillate between
longer and shorter make the statement.

After presenting a line with sporting influence in October 2017, the stylist
decided to bet on a more nocturnal collection (the one that gave the name
of “Night Drive”), with many futuristic traits.
To achieve his vision, Buchinho was inspired by the daily life in the movie
“Blade Runner 2049” for the choice of materials and silhouettes. Leather and
PVC were the majority of the materials used in his fall/winter collection,
bringing lightness and an eerie glow to his creations. Raglan shirts, padded
jackets and plated pockets were also a must in his collection.
