Celebrating: Ana Duarte, Senior Fashion Designer at Cavalinho, in Santa Maria da Feira.

<p><strong>What is the best compliment your work has ever received?</strong><br /> The best compliment is to see women wearing the handbags I design.</p> <p><strong>What designer do you most admire and why?</strong><br /> When I was 15 years old, my mother gave me a book about the history of fashion. There, I met for the first time a group of Japanese designers whose disruptive work really fascinated me. Among Rei Kawakubo, Issey Miyake, Junya Watanabe, the one I most admire is Yohji Yamamoto for its ingenious, unconventional and avant-garde works. He is a poet by transforming the silhouette into a masterpiece.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@NatadasNatas/celebrating-ana-duarte-senior-fashion-designer-at-cavalinho-in-santa-maria-da-feira-582efebb9896"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
