The Claudia Lobao trunk show will be in Austin tomorrow for just one day, Tuesday April 28. She will be presenting her Spring 2009 collection which was inspired by the Brazilian Carnaval. "She's focused her inspirations on Brazilian history to the time of Brazil's imperialistic era where royal families from Portugal brought absolute glamour to Brazilian society from Europe. The collection focuses on hand crafted arts such as crochet and Brazilian Fuxico which emphasized Brazil's love for its royalty and fashion. Today Brazilian Carnaval is an overwhelming representation to our visual senses with explosions of color, movement, music and total exuberance. The collection calls on all aspects of Brazilian Carnaval, from its history to its passion."
Such inspiration at the line's foundation paired with the Brazilian designer's attention to historical detail, the collection is something special to see. The inspiration comes through in her designs without being too overwhelming and with a lightness that she is known for.
It is no wonder that she has such a following, Eva Longoria being one of her most avid supporters. 
Stop by to see the wonderful pieces and to meet the designer herself.
Here are a few of the pieces from the collection:
