The second and final phase of the Young Designers Competition opens the MODALISBOA FOR GOOD catwalk.
After mentoring sessions with the jury and several professionals from the Fashion Industry (in a new ModaLisboa training program), and the development of new collections with the support of the textile partnerships of SANGUE NOVO supported by Seaside, (Calvelex/Fabrics4Fashion, RDD Textiles e Riopele) the six Designers returned to Pátio da Galé, for the final of the competition.

Bárbara Atanásio won the ModaLisboa X RDD Textiles Award: a three-month internship at RDD Textiles, where she will have the opportunity to create a collection for RDD using materials from Valérius 360 (Valérius’ recycling centre) and a collection name to present on the Lisbon Fashion Week’s Workstation platform. She will also receive a grant of 1,750 euros for the development of this new collection.
The two winners also benefit from press relations and showroom services at the communications agency Showpress, for one season.
