The João Pimenta Spring/Summer 2015 collection was presented during São Paulo Fashion Week in Brazil. The designer's runway show was a sophisticated translation of a classic skater aesthetic and featured a mix of formalwear and structured silhouettes that were a departure from loose-fitting cotton and denim causals.
This contemporary collection dressed surfer and skater models in colored suits that fused personality with sophistication. While the guys were now cleaned up for a formal evening, the bright blue color of their suits showed off a strong sense of personality.
In addition to vibrant formalwear, the João Pimenta Spring/Summer 2015 collection also showcased structured outerwear garments, metallic textures and wet-suit inspired pieces that embodied a sporty sense of sophistication.
