The 24-year-old singer Bárbara Bandeira is now gaining prominence as a fashion designer with the launch of her new label, 2B — a genderless, timeless brand — which will make its debut at the 65th Lisboa Fashion Week on October 3 at 10:30 p.m., concluding the third day of Modalisboa under the theme “Base.” The show, scheduled for the Pátio da Galé, located in Lisbon’s Terreiro do Paço, is by invitation only.

Via Instagram Stories, Bárbara Bandeira has just linked her black-and-white portrait, featured on the Modalisboa website, to the new 2B brand, with the title and subtitle: “Modalisboa with lots of good news still to come this year,” linking to Modalisboa.pt.

According to the Modalisboa Association: “2B was born as an extension of Bárbara Bandeira’s creative vision: a territory of freedom, free from gender, time or trends, 100% made in Portugal,” the website states. “The brand asserts itself as a manifesto of pure expression, where imperfection becomes beauty and each piece is a gesture of identity. Intentionally deconstructed, it celebrates contrasts between strength and vulnerability, sobriety and rebellion,” Modalisboa explains.

“2B is more than fashion: it’s dressing as an act of creation, where style frees itself from conventions and asserts itself in authenticity.”

The collection unfolds in eight emotional moments of movement and transformation: Genesis, “the blank canvas where anything can be born”; Flow, “a body in perpetual metamorphosis, fluid and infinite”; Impetus, “like armor, firm and protective,” yet revealing vulnerability; Vibration, the skin and sound, “a shiver that becomes music”; Duality, “where opposites confront and seduce each other”; Insurrection, “the fierce cry against the norm”; Labyrinth, “a territory of unpredictable layers”; Manifesto, “an incandescent climax, where shine is not an ornament but a symbol,” Modalisboa explains.

“Dressing is creation. Genderless. Timeless. Limitless.”
