Lisbon, Oct. 1, 2025 (Lusa) - The 65th ModaLisboa, which includes fashion shows, talks, exhibitions, performances and a temporary shop, kicks off today at MUDE, and runs until Sunday at other locations in the city centre, such as Pátio da Galé and Palacete Gomes Freire.
Today, MUDE - Museu do Design is hosting Fast Talks, a public debate space subject to prior registration, and the inauguration of the final presentation of the “beat by be@t” sustainability project. On display will be the results of projects developed by teams made up of fashion designers (Adriana Oliveira, Francisca Santos, Nicole Feliciano and Luís Carvalho) and small and medium-sized textile companies.
In this edition, ModaLisboa will take place over five days instead of the usual four, will have more moments open to the public and will debut a new project: Fashion House, which will be open between Thursday and Sunday at Palacete Gomes Freire, at 98 Rua Gomes Freire.
The space will be free to enter and "open to everyone", except for the presentations of the collections by Roselyn Silva, Ana Margarida Feijão and Gandaia, "due to public restraint", according to the director of ModaLisboa, Eduarda Abbondanza, speaking to Lusa.
