Reinaldo went to drink from American country culture and brought a cowboy look to his 2008 winter collection.
Lots of tailoring in detailed constructions with cut out embroidery in mostly black and gray looks.
The silhouette brings straight trench coat dresses and rigid skirts above the knees.
Shirts with a focus on finishing in leather, suede and fringe-like strips on the sleeves.
Well-defined waists with small belts. In the softer versions, tighter fitting dresses with many plaits in different directions and others with a cowboy's moonlit nights as prints.
At the end of the fashion show, Reinaldo shows how he masters constructions of volumes and shapes using ribbons in the details or in the entire looks, all with fringe.
Color chart in black, off-white and gray. The main raw materials are knits, noble fabrics for tailored looks, leather, velvet suede, silks.
