The Studio consists of a creative collective, which has among its areas and strands fashion. The brand parade always works as a manifesto, without presenting trends of the next season and in order to raise awareness and promote discussion among the public. This time, the chosen theme was about the homeless. The group joined the group of former homeless Men de Emmaus, who work in the socio-economic rehabilitation of homeless people and made the origami clothes and accessories in a paper workshop.

The parade started with a cardboard-built look, followed by a video with a homeless man talking about how his pieces are handcrafted and can take up to a year to complete. The collection mixed handcrafted elements with other more technological materials and the colors were basically neon.

In addition to sporting references, utilitarian features and overlaps appeared on the pieces, along with skydiving. There are lots of hooded nylon skirts and coats and the phrase “Homeless Sweet Homeless”, clochard pants, boyfriend shorts, layered skirts made of t-shirts, graphite silk shirts and two-waisted pants.

The digital prints, the collage of the jewelry design, the cut-outs and the bicolor pieces are not left out. Embroidery also comes along, as do some reused threads and ribbons.
