feature: 90s-inspired diy fashion lookin’ fly in editorial collaboration by luiz h. ferreira and saravá brechó

April 22, 2016

As a child of the 90s (the whole decade, thank you very much), I’m stoked to feature an editorial that draws its inspiration from the aesthetically epic period. The editorial is the resulting collaboration between photographer Luiz H. Ferreira and Saravá Brechó. Saravá is a thrift store fashion brand created by Nininha Albuquerque and Monique Correa. DIY thrifting and conscious consumption is a growing trend amongst young and creative Black Brazilians. Just as much as this editorial aims to pay homage to Black fashion in the 90s, it’s also a vehicle to show off how creative Saravá can been when it comes to styling.
