Portraits de Villes is also a story of time. The time dedicated to a book.
A Lisbon native, Felipe has woven tight links between his work and his family there. This book is testament to a life lived in Lisbon; the apartment block in which the family live, the hall crossed so many thousands of times.
Through the parks of his childhood cut with pictures of the early sketchbooks in which were born the designer that he has become today, the book tells the story of a Lisbon life that produced one of the most talented fashion designers of our times.
