"Sea Charm" is a collection that portrays the sea and its traditions.
A sea of glory and tribulation!
Fernando Pessoa's masterpiece, “Mar Português”, serves as the thematic backdrop for
NOPIN's SS24 collection, which pays homage to the indomitable spirit, sacrifices,
suffering, and unwavering determination of the Portuguese people.
Catarina, the authorial designer of NOPIN, sought to bring the interpretation of the
poem “Mar Português" to her creations, as well as all the tradition that Portugal has
around the sea.
The "Sea Charm" collection draws its inspiration from a variety of sources: the
fisherman's nets, faithfully recreated in organic cotton and meticulously woven on
traditional looms; the glistening play of sunlight on the ocean's surface, artfully
captured through the application of transparent foil on organic denim and organic mesh
fabrics; recycled lace elements pay homage to the maritime traditions and the resilience
of women; the patterns ingeniously crafted with the brand's logo, accentuated by
laser-cut details, evoke a sense of danger and suffering; asymmetric stripes boldly
reflect the sea's rebellious nature; flowing tulle, adorned with lace strips mimicking
ocean waves; oversized zippers symbolize the conquest of obstacles en route to one's
desired destination, embodying Pessoa’s words, "Whoever wants to pass beyond
Bojador / Must pass beyond pain"; fabric and color overlays translate the spirit of
struggle and the desire to win.
"Sea Charm" is mostly produced with sustainable fabrics, certified and produced in
Portugal, such as organic cotton, recycled polyester, lyocell, silk, etc.
The color palette illustrates feelings and behaviors, such as black representing
sadness, blue representing positivity, hot pink representing rebellion, lilac representing
humility, white representing strength, light pink representing sensitivity, and finally,
lemon yellow representing optimism.
Furthermore, NOPIN preserves its quality and standards through its own
manufacturing.
