I met Estefania two years ago in Porto, during the fashion week. We were wandering in the corridors. She was with her friend, Hector Olguin, photographer. We exchange smiles, have a cocktail, look at the Douro by the window and we became friends.
Estefânia is the kind of person you can’t live without. She always have a good or amazing story to tell. Last time it was all about punk music.
In Adorna Corações, her boutique/showroom where she host others designers and artists she spend time telling me the story of portuguese punk bands, then leave to kiss a client and come back to the story. Estefânia is exuberant. Most of this bands are friends as she used to work for them as a producer, famous Paulo Furtado himself (aka Legendary Tigerman and singer of ska band Wraygunn) is also a good friend.
I was fascinated and i promise you a post about this era and those bands!
The animated gif above was taken during a lunch. Estefania gave us a good laugh when she got up from table to explain how she tried to descend the stairs of Palais de Tokyo with her rollers(!) avoiding photographers who took pictures… of the movie star just behind her (yes she thought she was paparizzed).
We agreed to say that this movie star was just a @&#$ !
Estefania is a internationally renowned contemporary jeweller and curator, more in a next post i promised. She also have a great look (yes it could be also an other post).
Yesterday was her birthday and this post is my present.
Thanks for your « bonne humeur » Estefania. Love !
