pé de chumbo brings Portuguese glamour to India's with new collection

Portuguese luxury brand pé de chumbo has arrived in India with its new Autumn-Winter collection. Founded by Alexandra Oliveira, pé de chumbo is renowned for its playful yet sophisticated pieces, perfect for a special occasion or a red carpet event.
This A/W collection draws inspiration from the ‘caretos,’ masked characters in Portugal's vibrant northern carnival. Fringed wool costumes translate into playful fringes and a bold color palette, with metallics like gold adding a touch of red-carpet glamour.
Oliveira understands the importance of color in different markets. While gold and sparkles play up the party theme, neutral tones offer a more casual option. The same silhouette can become versatile, with a black shirt appealing to Italians and a gold version finding favor in the Middle East. In India, pé de chumbo, in collaboration with AiSPi, aims to customize designs to suit local preferences.
The construction of each piece is a signature element. Thread "draws" the garment, creating 3D volumes and textured surfaces that open or close depending on the design. This seamless technique allows for effortless transformation, from beach party chic with flip-flops to red carpet elegance with the right accessories.
The key to balancing playfulness and sophistication lies in styling. A pé de chumbo dress can be dressed down for a pre-wedding party in India or transformed into a red carpet stunner with the right accessories. It's all about versatility and adaptability, letting the wearer define the occasion.
pé de chumbo's arrival in India promises to inject a dose of Portuguese flair into the party season. With its unique fabrics, playful designs, and adaptable elegance, the brand is sure to win the hearts of those who appreciate quality craftsmanship and effortless style.
