Leather as an expression of hope at Inspiramais
A total of 17 leather manufacturers will take part in the January 2025 edition of Inspiramais, which takes place in Porto Alegre on the 21 and 22 of the month.
They have prepared collections of finished leather that they think will work well with the fashion trends predicted for the second half of 2026.
The team at Inspiramais has collated the leather collections into a special display at the exhibition, with ‘Human’ as the theme and “the word ‘hope’ as its central axis”.
Co-ordinator of the project, Marnei Carminatti, from the Inspiramais research and design team, said in the build-up to the show that using these materials as an expression of hope “reaffirms the appreciation of leather as an essential material, capable of reflecting the needs and aspirations of a constantly changing world”.
The 17 participating leather manufacturers are Casa Romeu, Fuga Couros, Leather Labs, CBR Couros, Mucca Pelli, Nova Kaeru, Couroquímica, CR Leather, OCM Best Brasil, Curtume Mats, Strut, Faf Couros, Tre Anytry, FD Home Décor, Toinzinho, Sud Leather and Zitty Couros.
