Brazilian Enzo Peres Perederko wins Bloom competition at Portugal Fashion
Enzo Peres Perederko, a Brazilian from São Paulo, of Spanish descent through his mother and Ukrainian through his father, is the winner of the new Bloom competition (PWD by Salsa Jeans), benefiting from the mentoring of the Marques'Almeida duo, especially as a final year student at ESAD in Matosinhos. However, Portugal Fashion's Bloom, which reveals young talent, is now in the hands of Marta Marques and Paulo Almeida from the British label Marques'Almeida (M'A), who presented their pre-fall and fall-winter collections in Douro vineyards on the first day of the catwalk in Porto. Peres Perederko walked the catwalk barefoot, handing his boots to a model who was left without shoes by an unforeseen casting event. Let's face it: a good start for insolently marking his territory by chance (and not exactly by calling attention to himself), "connecting with the land," as he says he likes, on the catwalk that took him to the podium of the Old Vasco da Gama Canning Factory, in Matosinhos. And where an honorable mention was also awarded to Vânia Oliveira. Enzo came to Portugal three years ago to study at ESAD and plans to stay in the country to continue developing his label and enjoy the award as the winner of Bloom 2025, which includes a paid professional internship at Salsa Jeans, a postgraduate degree in Fashion Management at Católica Porto Business School, access to technical mentoring, specialist communication advice from Showpress and a cash prize of 2,450 euros. spoke to Peres Perederko after the show on Thursday, and later at a chance meeting in the atelier of the Portuguese-British duo Ernest W. Baker, who had just arrived from Paris to close the third day of the Portugal Fashion Experience, in Porto's Corujeira square. And where it was possible to get a closer look at the wonderful, well-finished tailoring that the Porto brand has been accustoming us to, including the introduction of a new color, green, as well as patterns with flowers and zebra stripes, Inês Amorim, whom her partner Reid Baker favors for interviews, told us during the event. Fashion Network: Do you have any plans for after this award you received as soon as you finished your degree? Enzo Peres Perederko: For the time being, I want to do the next collection and manage the award at the same time, in Portugal. But I'm open to all possibilities. FN: Also with your feet on the ground, like at the end of the show? EPP: I bowed with my feet on the ground because a model had to wear my boots. The casting was changed and a size 42 model came in and I only had women's shoes. I had to give up mine and went barefoot. FN: Did the model belong to this collection? EPP: Yes, they are boots that belong to this collection. FN: So are you going to stay in Portugal? EPP: For the time being, yes. I'm open to opportunities. I go where my intuition takes me. FN: How long have you been in Portugal? EPP: I came three years ago to finish university. I just finished my degree at ESAD. FN: Why ESAD? EPP: In Porto, it was the only school that had a degree in the area and I needed a university that would give me residency and it was the right fit. FN: How important are these competitions for young designers to Enzo? EPP: It's a driving force. For someone who's always had this dream and this desire, it's very important because they present us with a fashion show with an autonomous professional team, and we just worry about the clothes and bringing an interesting image and getting the idea out there, as well asnetworking. FN: What are you looking forward to now? EPP: I have a very interesting message to say. As I said before, I consider myself a clumsy, out-of-place person and I think that fashion is my comfort point. Now, with the award, I'm going to make the next collection. This was "Genêsis 01", now I'm going to do "02" and so on. FN: And what is the inspiration for this collection? EPP: It's the origin. I looked for origins in classic pieces of men's and women's clothing. I like to play with androgyny, and it's the origin of deconstructing and re-constructing these pieces that are all unconventional. They can be worn in different ways and I look for this questioning in myself when making the pieces. Taking a shoulder off here and putting it on there, playing with creativity. FN: Have these influences always been around? EPP: Yes, I'm from São Paulo, a fashion city. The influences are always there. In Brazil, clothing is very different, people dress differently, there's no winter and I'm fascinated by new things. I'd never worn a classic coat in my life before I left Brazil. I'm fascinated by clothes and it's all very new to me. I'm deconstructing and making my universe in my own way FN: How many looks did you present? EPP: I presented five looks, although the collection originally had eight androgynous looks. FN: What did you choose in terms of fabrics? EPP: Classic tailoring and shirting fabrics. I used cuts that aren't very traditional for tailoring and shirting, I also used denim from Troficolor, which wasn't sponsored but the denim is fantastic. I get a lot of materials from stocks. They're not always Portuguese, so I explore.

The Summer Dresses to Wear, According to Your Zodiac Sign
The sun is out (sort of), and the unpredictable forecast may be causing decision paralysis when it comes to choosing the best summer dress to wear. What if, just maybe, you relinquished all control and put your sartorial fate in the hands of your horoscope? Specifically, we have scoured the zodiac and matched star signs to summer dresses to make getting ready in the morning that much easier. Whether your star sign is passionate fire, whimsical air, romantic water, or grounded earth, there is a summer dress to suit. The corset dress may be alluring to the indecisive Libra, while a naked dress will equip a Gemini for her next party. Pisces? We have you covered, and it involves several chiffon ruffles. Sun in Virgo? You'll be happy to hear there are no ruffles in sight—only a crisp shirt dress or three. The zodiac's natural-born rebels rarely follow the crowd. That's why they will be adventuring their way through summer in a dress made from denim, a fabric that's as practical as it is playful—especially when said dress is constructed from a repurposed pair of jeans. Haikure and Marques'Almeida are masters of the jean dress, while Gabriela Hearst offers up ladylike styles in clean-wash chambray. If she were alive today, we think famous Sagittarian Jane Austen would very much approve of the latter. A dress that celebrates corsetry will satisfy even the most indecisive of Librans, while appealing to their need for balance and harmony. Of course, one cannot write about corset dresses without talking about Vivienne Westwood. Do like stylish Libra Bella Hadid, who has a penchant for vintage Westwood, and find a pre-loved piece on eBay or Depop, styling it with a pearl necklace and exaggerated platforms. Alternatively, layer a bustier from Sézane or Reformation atop a crisp cotton dress. The Taurus woman's favorite place is nestled upon a cloud-like sofa, so when she does go out, she wants her outfit to be equal parts comfortable and chic. Enter: the maxi dress, ideally minimally decorated, in an earthy hue and crafted from a good-quality fabric (Tauruses prize luxury). Khaite, Posse, and St. Agni all reign supreme when it comes to the minimal maxi. Keep everything else suitably pared back; think leather flip flops, a chunky beaded necklace, and a logo-less bag. Have you ever seen a hair out of place on Zendaya, Cameron Diaz, or Beyoncé? Well, that's likely because they're Virgos—a sign known for meticulous attention to detail. We're giving the shirt dress to the Virgos, mostly because we know they'll ensure it's crisply ironed and never coffee-stained. New York designers have long loved a shirt dress, namely Tory Burch and Kate Spade, whose signature styles call for ballet flats and a ladylike bag. Leos are no wallflowers, which is why we suggest they adorn themselves with the most eye-catching blooms. Floral dresses come in endless iterations, but we're currently partial to an oversized bouquet. Magnified roses or peonies reinvigorate a simple shirt or midi dress, and make it perfect for the summer season's slew of events. If splashing out, Erdem is the natural choice—the designer's full-skirted dresses call to mind a nostalgic elegance that Leos will love. Otherwise, brands like Mango, Ro&Zo, and Rixo are advocates for petal power, whatever the season. This charismatic air sign is the perfect candidate for the sheer trend, and it's no secret that a naked dress makes for quite the conversation starter. Consider a sheath style in organza, chiffon, or mesh—as favored by Sportmax, Alaïa, and Khaite—layering it with a bandeau bra and big knickers or a neutral-colored slip, depending on how daring you feel. Cancerians don't like surprises, and there is familiarity and comfort in the calf-grazing length of a midi dress. You may prefer to eschew this season's floaty, frothy numbers for something decidedly more prim and proper. As seen at Miu Miu and Self-Portrait, one could imagine these structured shifts being worn by Cancerians including Margot Robbie, Pamela Anderson, and the late Princess Diana. They look great with heeled ballet pumps or pointed slingbacks. The creative, intellectual, and free-spirited Aquarius is often drawn to bold prints and colors, which may make the polka dot dress a curious choice. Hear us out—the humble polka dot becomes anything but boring when rendered in lipstick red (see Fendi), made sheer (Conner Ives), or matched with other spotty things (Moschino). Need more inspiration? Here is an outfit we are wearing on repeat: Susa Musa's sheer, polka dot skirt; a 1990s-inspired, fitted shirt or tee; and barely-there mules. The diligent, attention-focused Capricorn will likely appreciate the uniformity and symmetry of a striped dress. Never ones to follow the crowd, they may depart from stripes' nautical associations by opting for something deconstructed and asymmetric, as seen at Proenza Schouler. While it may be all-too tempting to opt for a boating shoe, a square-toe ballet flat or sneakerina style is pleasingly unexpected—perfect for a trailblazing Capricorn. Diana Ross, Sarah Jessica Parker, Céline Dion… Aries women are leading ladies by nature, with a fearless approach to most things, including fashion. She won't balk at a flippy, thigh-grazing hem, which is lucky because for spring 2025, designers showed exaggerated, A-line shapes that showed a lot of leg. JW Anderson's were made of leather and architected with tutu-like skirts, while Loewe's were trapeze-shaped and embellished with bright sequins. Complement the 1960s feel with a pair of space-age silver Mary Janes or ballet flats. No one will appreciate the unfettered romance of a diaphanous, ruffle-edge dress quite like this whimsical water sign. She'll be wafting around in some chiffon concoction, ideally in a sugared-almond shade and by Chloé. Free People is a great destination for ruffled fancies, including bloomers, which our Piscean may wish to layer beneath a semi-sheer smock. Sensual Scorpio knows that lace-trimmed, silk nighties are far too alluring to reserve for the bedroom. Instead, she is looking to spring 2025 catwalks for inspiration and wearing a mere wisp of a dress with chunky wooden platforms and a vintage bag (as seen at Chloé) or something more 1960s-tinged, like knee-high socks and loafers (as decreed at Miu Miu). We are buying our slinky slips from Coutille and Reformation, and those too-lovely-for-bed nighties from Smock London and If Only If.
