Biography
I'm Eleonora Portera, I'm italian fashion designer.
I studied Fashion design at IED, european institute of design in Milan.
Than I started to work in a knitwear fabric in Brescia, before like assistant product manager and than like product manager.
After one year, once I felt confident enough I created my fashion label; what followed was collaboration with Nespresso, for which I created a dress used in the advertising campaign from the United Arab Emirates. I had collaboration with the well- known showgirl Belen Rodriguez, I created a knitwear suit worn by her in an Italian TV program. I also had the pleasure to collaborate with the championship poledancer Olga Koda.


My goal is creating theatrical and poetic collections able to make every woman dream to live in a surreal and futuristic world.

Leit Motiv is the contamination, the human body, enhanced by the shape that describes the anatomy, which is humanoid in the volumes evoking robotics.
The use of techno and structured materials joins the use of natural and soft materials that weave the fibers of a dress looking in the middle between the human and the cyborg.
Leather intertwining are mixed with works in wool and embroidery in lamé hand made with great care and tireless dedication.

The colours constantly present in my collections are golden, silver and black, that remind to the stiff exoskeleton of the cyborg.
This research is born from the need to express myself and my character that closely reflects the dual aspects mixed and interwoven with each other of my collections.

Indeed, on one side my character is very strong like the shapes and the materials of the cyborg, on the other side I’m extremely sensitive as the soft shapes and the natural textiles of the humanoid.
