Moda Lisboa

There´s no denying that Portuguese Fashion Week is one of my favorite events. Situated in beautiful Cascais, the Atlantic Ocean kisses the sea side edge of the cliff, where a ancient fortress hosts Moda Lisboa. Now in it´s 33rd year, it continues to show designers new and old, experimental and conservative with a history steeped in traditional tailoring.

Every year the same international press descend upon Hotel Albatroz on the waterfront of Cascais to catch up, laugh, get loud, and of course, check out this season´s latest offerings.

This year marks the end of Moda Lisboa´s Cascais location so it is with sadness that we bid farewell to an era of down time by the pool and breakfast overlooking the beach - you may realize now why this is one of my favorite destinations.
