David Catalán's AW23/24 collection @ TRANOÏ 2023
David Catalán presented his AW23/24 collection at the Tranoï exhibition partner of the Paris Fashion Week® last month. The collection is inspired by the outdoors and the spirit of adventure, with a mix of everyday outdoor activity and classic men's clothing. The result is a comfortable silhouette that is perfect for the contemporary and urban man. The brand's key pieces are made with denim and new details have been added to create a modern look. The color palette features a mix of fluo colors contrasted with neutral colors, adding to the collection's vibrancy. Textured materials, Camo, and nylons with a comfortable look are the highlights of this collection, giving it a young, fun, and irreverent feel. Visitors to the exhibition can expect to see an innovative and exciting collection that combines practicality with modern style. This was the first public showcase of this collection.
David’s' participation in Tranoï was part of a collaboration between Portugal Fashion and the trade show. The two entities signed an agreement for six editions in Paris and three editions in Porto, with the aim of promoting the Portuguese fashion industry on an international scale. With the enormous network of contacts of Tranoï and the Féderation de la Haute Couture et de la Mode (FHCM), Portugal Fashion has partnered with a partner of enormous international relevance to expand the reach of the Portuguese fashion business.
Portugal Fashion is responsible for proposing names for participation in Tranoï, leaving the choice and curation of brands to Tranoï's expertise. By evaluating the international position that each brand can have in various world markets, Tranoï ensures that only the most promising brands are showcased. In addition to the participation of Portuguese designers at the show in France, Tranoï is responsible for inviting buyers to the national Portugal Fashion editions until October 2023.

By showcasing his AW23/24 collection, David Catalán had the opportunity to reach a wider audience and gain exposure for his brand. His collection's unique mix of practicality, style, and innovation undoubtedly captured the attention of fashion enthusiasts and buyers alike.
The collaboration between Portugal Fashion and Tranoï provides a unique platform for designers like David Catalán to gain global recognition, and it is an exciting opportunity to witness the growth and creativity of the Portuguese fashion industry.
