My parents had a factory, so I was linked to the textile and fashion industry.

I cannot live without art: it excites me, it challenges me, and it leads me to the next thing.

I'm not an artist. I'm a fashion designer of clothes.

You think of luxury when you think of Calvin Klein. He created this lifestyle that's really desirable, so our whole project has that quality of being lasting.

I do go back to Brazil once a year. I miss my family.

Each season I strive to design a forward-thinking and effortless collection with a very clean minimalist aesthetic.

People don't really go to museums in Rio. I shouldn't say it's not sophisticated, but, you know, they go to the beach.
