THE BOND / ART_____FASHION

FERNANDO LOPES, DESIGNER AND FOUNDER OF DELOPES, HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONNECT WITH STUDENTS AT THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT IN FRANKFURT AM MAIN 2023. DURING THE SESSION, HE PRESENTED HIS BRAND OF LEATHER GOODS AND GARMENTS AND SHARED HIS PERSONAL JOURNEY AND THE VALUES THAT DRIVE HIS WORK, WITH A MISSION TO INSPIRE THE NEXT GENERATION.

ONE KEY ASPECT THAT FERNANDO EMPHASIZED WAS THE STRONG CONNECTION BETWEEN ART AND FASHION. HE DISCUSSED HOW HE DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM RENOWNED PERSONALITIES AND ARTISTS WHO HAVE MADE A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT IN THESE FIELDS. BY STUDYING THEIR WORKS AND UNDERSTANDING THEIR CREATIVE PROCESSES, FERNANDO FINDS MOTIVATION TO PUSH HIS OWN BOUNDARIES AND CREATE UNIQUE DESIGNS.

BY SHARING HIS EXPERIENCES AND INSIGHTS, FERNANDO AIMED TO INSPIRE THE STUDENTS AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO EXPLORE THEIR CREATIVITY IN BOTH ART AND FASHION. HE HIGHLIGHTED THE IMPORTANCE OF EMBRACING INDIVIDUALITY, THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX, AND STAYING TRUE TO ONE´S VISION.

THROUGH HIS TALK, THE STUDENTS GAINED A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE FASHION INDUSTRY AND ITS INTERSECTION WITH THE WORLD OF ART, IGNITING THEIR OWN CREATIVITY AND PASSION FOR DESIGN.
