Fátima Lopes
Being Lisbon's boldest designer has taken Fátima Lopes to the major fashion capitals of the world. Her first international show was in Paris, where she opened a store, as she did in Los Angeles a few years later. Her boutique in Lisbon was one of the top destinations of the Bairro Alto district for almost two decades, but it closed in 2016 and she moved her studio closer to the upscale Avenida da Liberdade. Lopes was the talk around the world in 2000, when she modeled her own million-dollar diamond-covered swimsuit down a Paris runway, which caught the attention of new international markets.
