2021 — A NEW VISION
Opulent. Innovative. Inspired by the rich culture of my heritage, 2021 marked the beginning of a new direction for ARMANDO CABRAL, as we embrace African artisanal textiles matched with bespoke Italian craftsmanship, creating a unique viewpoint on luxury and giving back.
Starting with our Fall/Winter collection, we will be donating proceeds from each purchase to support:
- Black Lives Matter
- Education in Guinea-Bissau
Each season, we will select a new social-justice partner in our giving program to continue our mission of giving back to communities around the world.
