COVETED MAGAZINE PAGE 113.
Asymmetrical cuts, set of volumes, hourglass silhouettes and
feminine shapes marked with Diogo Miranda‘s DNA bring to
the autumn/winter 2018 a mark that makes it impossible to
deny his authorship. In straight and ethereal lines with faceted
cuts conveyed by the glitter and movement of the pieces, the
coordinates are all on our wish list for the upcoming season.
A figure dressed in taffeta and technical fabrics that help shape
details like 3D sleeves and other volumes, the lengths are midi
versus exposed legs and the necklines are deep. The runway does
not deceive: this is the confident, independent and sexy woman
Miranda has already accustomed us to.

The tulle takes the centre stage in full dresses or in small details
of the female wardrobe, presented by the Oporto’s Designer.
The hourglass lines, the volume, the fair-to-oversized
play that is the hallmark of the brand returns to a refined
cold season in a chromatic palette and choice of materials.
Silks, wool and cotton all take on a daily life, leaving the
monotonous and conservative way behind to enter the field
of style and elegance by the belted silhouettes, a perversion
of traditional lines and fine work of tailoring. The dresses,
romantic and princess styles, gain a relaxation in the carefree
woman who uses them as if they were a pair of jeans. The
shades accompany: rich golds, but never eccentric, grey, black,
then they evolve to brick, brown, beige, blue, gaining lustre in
smooth fabrics or textures like brocades.

Black and red were the two colours that reigned upon
Onofre’s proposals. The elegance that has accustomed us was
the keyword for a collection that brought us stilettos, mules
and over-the-knee boots to lead his Fall/Winter collection.
Already in the world of accessories, the wallets were mainly
designed with leather and velvet, two of the hottest materials
on the season to come. Onofre also debuted his very own line
of chic, sleek-designed umbrellas.
”In my head, a good brand doesn’t
need its logo to be recognized. Sure,
there ar some pieces that require
the usage of the brand’s logo in its
design, but I’d rather be recognized
by the quality and design of my
products than by a mere logo.”
