In a conscious view of the environmental situation, Carlos Gil presents, for the SS20 season, a collection for a determined woman and with a voice ... a Woman of Causes. In his imagination, he builds a vision of the Nature, through patterns that suggest paintings, with floral details, organic shapes and bursts of colors with brush strokes. The designer constitute a symbolism that defines femininity through elements of the nature that represent its delicacy, sensitivity and beauty, giving life to the Ideal Nature SS20 collection, with modern and irreverent details.
