Arte, moda e Business...

Leilão de arte no Clube de Estilo.
Como empresário, fico louco pra encontrar bons negócios, melhores preços, mais rendimento, enfim, performance!!

Como profissional da moda, me preocupo com o belo, com o contemporâneo, com desejo e com o luxo (sempre despretensioso - luxo europeu em um país com 32 graus centígrados de média eu pessoalmente acho brega).

Como pessoa, amo a vida e meus olhos me proporcionam o sentido que mais gosto - a VISÃO ! Nasci com olhos grandes demais para o meu rosto, justamente para apreciar visualmente tudo o que passa em minha frente. ARTE é minha paixão, principalmente arte contemporânea de Brasileiros. Acho MUITO CHIC!!

O Leilão da COOPERARTISTA no Clube de Estilo foi uma grande oportunidade de fazer grandes NEGÓCIOS com ARTE brasileira, sou uma prova viva disso. Comprei peças maravilhosas de artistas fantásticos, que farão a diferença em minha vida pelo prazer visual que eu tenho e pela construção do meu patrimônio. O leilão feito em um espaço de moda traz gente bacana de vários meios, tornando-se um programa delicioso.

Veja que passou por aqui, no link do Glamurama:

Obrigado à CAMPARI e ao Suco DEL VALLE pelo apoio ao nosso evento e à arte!!



Espero todos os meus amigos na próxima edição do Leilão... Venham apreciar o belo, fazer bons negócios e se divertir.

Clube de Estilo




Brothers Fernando and Fabio Cunha opened Clube de Estilo in September of 2002, as a consultancy company, developing strategies and introducing new designers to the wholesale market. Unlike the majority of the fashion market, which is concerned only with image and glamour, the Cunhas background gave them an edge. Their experience with construction and multinational companies gave them strategy skills and focus on results giving Clube de Estilo an advantage. Fernando got his start in the fashion industry in 2001 as the commercial manager of Capodarte, a Brazilian shoe company. During his time at Capodarte he brought two collections into 163 stores nationwide.

In may 2003 they opened their first showroom which has been a huge success. At that time they launched designers Francesca Giobbi and Diva, both of whom have been received with great enthusiasm in the Brazilian market. Alongside the showroom they started a PR Agency in august 2005. As time passed and their experience increased, Clube de Estilo started working with brands at São Paulo Fashion Week and Fashion Rio, and now it is a "must see" showroom for buyers of the best stores in Brazil.

Business has been very good for the Cunhas. The next step was to move Clube de Estilo to a big and luxury 10,000 sq.ft. space in Jardins, an upscale neighborhood known as the "Brazilian Beverly Hills". The new location, which includes the Clube the Estilo showroom, the PR agency and a “French style” snack bar, called Lanchonete Paulista; earned them a great deal of press coverage for each event they held. Their newfound visibility has allowed them to embark on a new project - bringing foreign brands to Brazil for nationwide, and International distribution.

Daniella Zylbersztajn - Profile




The designer's path through fashion until reaching success.

She has always been attached to fashion. In her childhood, she was thrilled her mom had a boutique. Soon, trying different outfits , imagining different looks and performing pocket size runway shows were part her routine.

Daniella Zylbersztajn has always been like that. A girl with attitude, always chose her own clothes, she worried about showing up at least three times at the hall of her building wearing unique looks. That could only mean one thing: This girl was born to fashion! As if all this inclination for fashion was not enough, her family's history matched with her ideas. A long time ago, her German grand-grand parents had a purse factory in Frankfurt. Information she only found out about after creating her own brand. Her Grandmother, the first family generation in Brazil, followed the family's steps and also opened a factory in Rio de Janeiro.

As amazing as it sounds, the "fashion-girl" grew up denying her creative side, but since she was seven she proudly proclaimed she wanted to be the editor of an Italian fasion magazine.

But she eventually followed her destiny. She studied on her own about production, styling, modeling, but focused her education on a Marketing degree at FIAM. It was then that her professional involvement with fashion started, working with respected Ralph Lauren and Santaconstancia textile factories

That was not enough for her, she travelled to Italy, her childhood dream, and there started finding herself. She studied fashion marketing at the European Design Institute, she also took classes for accessories designs at the institute di Moda Burgo. After working really hard in Milan, including those desired fashion magazines and at Giampiero Publications, which includes Pelle and Progetti magazines among others, it was at an end season trip that she found her true calling.

Berlin, Antwerp, Brussels, Amsterdam and Paris. A month trip was worth more than she could ever get on a year attending fashion classes. Discoveries at thrift shops, a fresh air in every single new stylist found. It was during this exciting period that she found her future direction: She wanted to design purses.

Her new project in life took six months to bloom. Her first collection was born from precious findings in thrift shops in Brazil and around the world. Dresses were transformed in her hands becoming beautiful vintages pieces.

After such a great start, the success was phenomenal. Highly desirable collections, which are points of reference nowadays, followed. Items from Zooland, Sensações and Libertè collections are sought-after items among hipster girls.

Daniella also has an academic side. She teaches at the Brazilian European Design Institute in Sao Paulo, lecturing about Purses Designs.

Nowadays, the brand Daniella Zylbersztajn can be found over 30 locations spread throughout Brazil and other countries and she also sign special projects at the Melissa Gallery and at the Garimpo Fuxique, among others.

Pat Falcão - Profile



Patricia Falcão Bauer Lourenço's passion has always been drawing. Graduated in Engineering and mastered in Environmental Sciences, she came back from a season in Canada willing to change her career. So she started to put her ideas and visions into paper. Those drawings became her first pieces; they came alive in brass transforming ordinary materials in a work of art covered in gold, white gold and silver. That was the genesis of her first collection and the brand called Pat Falcão.


Her obsession to the form, her passion for drawing and the technical knowledge of the materials gave Patricia's pieces a particular beauty. In a short period of time the necklaces became a note at the magazine Madame Figaro, part of the emblematic French newspaper, and her butterflies, fishes, religious motifs and leaves became the season's "must have".
