English Version | Portugal With Love: In Vogue Shopping

Bohemian Rhapsody

Let's pretend we've gone back to the Woodstock Festival - the four hottest days of the summer of 1969 - and brought back everything that would mark the 70s, namely crochet. Endowed with a playful and nostalgic spirit that is irresistible at this time of year, this material perfectly captures the boho spirit that sizzled on the catwalks of Marine Serre, JW Anderson and Loewe. In dresses, bikinis, bags or shoes, in 2024 crochet will be worn anytime, anywhere.

The return of the clog

Almost twenty years after their disappearance (fashion is cyclical, what is considered a closet staple today is a resounding “no” in less than six months, etc.), clogs are back. A hot topic in the industry - you either love them or hate them - they were the favorite shoes of Sarah Jessica Parker, Alexa Chung and Sienna Miller at the turn of the millennium. This spring/summer they're back in force, and Portugal has a long love affair with them: try asking your grandmother if she hasn't worn clogs.
