Clara Pinto Spring 2025 Menswear – Wool Couture – was presented with an immersive showcase at Sarabande, The Lee Alexander McQueen Foundation, during London Fashion Week. Selected for the LFW Discovery Lab, Clara Pinto unveiled pieces crafted entirely from handmade felt and dyed with natural pigments. These sustainable creations utilized zero-waste, 3D, wet-felt techniques to form sculptural shapes reminiscent of the natural world. Collaborations featured jewellery designer Sara Chyan, who created pearl and bio-resin face pieces, and Nikole Tursi, who produced ethereal headpieces using textiles crafted by Pinto.
Drawing inspiration from her Argentinian heritage, Clara Pinto paid tribute to the Ombu tree and its delicate blooms, reflected in the transparent layers of her meticulously crafted felts. The brand’s innovative production techniques include wet, needle, and nuno felting, along with bio-materials and digital printing.
