Step into the captivating world of PatBO's Spring 2024 show, where designer Patricia Bonaldi takes a unique approach, staying true to her couture-style beading and vibrant Brazilian essence while embracing muted tones and natural materials.

This season, PatBO's signature ornate designs are reimagined with a focus on the understated, departing from the typical crystals and saturated hues. Patricia Bonaldi shares her creative journey, stating, "The neutral element is new for me. This collection showcases a variety of neutral shades and palettes, with beads that have a more realistic quality. I've always incorporated fancier materials like crystals, but now I'm incorporating wood elements to infuse a natural aesthetic into the world of couture."

The incorporation of natural materials finds its inspiration in Tropicalia, a late 1960s musical movement rooted in Brazil, Patricia Bonaldi's homeland. She explains, "Tropicalia was boho with a tropical twist. I believe I'm reinventing that era in Brazil in a modern context. This collection is a celebration of textures and the fusion of diverse elements. My brand has never embraced minimalism, and I relish experimenting with materials."
