"LAT in AMERICA" by Lautaro Amadeo Tambutto / FASHIONCLASH AWARD 2015

The winners of the Fashionclash Festival 2015 that runs in Maastricht these days are the young brands LAT by Lautaro Amadeo Tambutto (from Argentina, now based in Milan ) who wins the Fashionclash Festival Award 2015 and Patrick de Padua (from Portugal) who wins the Kaltblut Magazine Award 2015. Also to notice, a special mention from Kaltblut magazine for Carlotaoms and LAT.

LAT wins with the menswear collection named LATinAMERICA inspired by his home country, Argentina, with a contemporary view and in phase with a urban and cosmopolitan use. A kind of gaucho from the argentina's pampa in town. In parallel the menswear collection of Patrick de Padua titled "Promises" and presented during the last edition of ModaLisboa_Lisboa Fashion week fw 15/16, is a collection characterized by oversized silhouettes and overlapping parts as a symbol of protection. The man "Promises" combines an openly streetwear line with more traditional elements such as the perfecto or the trench coat, reinvented with military details.
