Keyla Cabral, student of Degree in Fashion Design at UDIT, University of Design, Innovation and Technology, has won the IV Edition of the Greenwalk Awards Alicante, with her project Mistura.
It is a colourful look with which the young designer wanted to reflect how African music has been a fundamental influence on global music, celebrating its rhythms, songs and structures .
Mistura is based on a sustainable vision based on craftsmanship, emotion and the re-signification of materials, and has been made entirely from a mesh fabric intervened with more than 20,000 flanges placed by hand one by one and also dyed by hand .
This look, which won over the jury of the Greenwalk Awards, also has a special meaning for Keyla Cabral, as it recreates the print of a picture painted by her father .
As the winner of this competition, which promotes sustainability in the design and manufacture of new fashion garments and is aimed at new talents, the young designer will be able to enjoy an all-expenses-paid weekend course at the prestigious Central St. Martins in London. A unique opportunity to continue training and growing professionally and, of course, personally .
