Lau de Sousa
Fashion Brand
Laura Sousa is a Portuguese fashion designer based in Berlin, whose work explores the intersection of technology, craftsmanship, and material experimentation. Her design process often begins with the development of innovative surfaces, created through hands-on exploration of materials and their inherent properties. These are then draped and sculpted directly on the bust to uncover organic forms and evolving silhouettes. Laura Sousa is particularly interested in structures that convey movement and fluidity, frequently combining traditional craft techniques with contemporary technologies. Her latest collection merges Kirigami - the Japanese art of paper cutting - with laser-cut neoprene, resulting in voluminous, dynamic shapes that bring a sculptural presence to the body.
