ABOUT US
LAB55 is a fashion design studio based in Lisbon, dedicated to the creation and development of exclusive collections.
It operates as a link between authorial design and specialized production, supporting every stage, from trend research to final product delivery.
​
Founded in Lisbon in 2023, LAB55 reflects the union of creativity and technical precision, combining artistic vision with excellence in execution.
The name LAB comes from “laboratory”, a space where experimentation takes shape. The number 55 represents Brazil’s country code, the origin of the creative director, a designer with over ten years of experience, and the movement that guides each project.
