From 22 to 25 of May all attention in fashion industry was focused on Rio de Janeiro. Considering that still the biggest Brazilian fashion event takes place in Sao Paulo, RFW is becoming more and more popular, attracting new designers.
Well, analyzing collections presented in Rio, I can describe summer 2013 in few words: NEON, AFRICA, DENIM; most of designer were creating their collection in this frameworks.
Sacada and Alexander Herchcovitch were inspired with African culture. A. Herchcovitch became so impressed with lifestyle of African tribues that he created pens and blouses with world map print, marking location of tribues on this map. In general he used natural colors: blue, beige, red.

The collection was created with desire to show the style of Morocco, trying to reveal all devirsity of this country, mixture of poverty and wealth. The image was created using fabrics with mosaic prints, combinations of white, golden, metallic colors.
