Tony Miranda is a pioneer of Haute Couture in Portugal!

Launching his career at the age of 18 at Maison Joseph Camps, under the tutelage of one of French haute couture’s greatest masters, he then moved on to Maison Ted Lapidus, where he served as creative director. In 1979, he established his own atelier, first at 61 bis, Avenue Suffren, and later at 5, Rue Cambon, one of the most prestigious fashion streets in Paris.

In Portugal, he opened an atelier and boutique in Guimarães, followed by another in Porto years later. In Lisbon, in 1997, he reconstructed a Pombaline building, naming it after himself, and inaugurated it in 2000 on the emblematic Avenida da Liberdade, no. 92/100.

He plays a pivotal role in promoting the image of Portugal and Portuguese know-how in an area that holds significant weight in the Portuguese economy, namely the fashion and clothing industry.

With production and offices located in Guimarães, and with a private service space at Avenida da Liberdade, nº 92/100 in Lisbon, where the 2nd Floor Universe for Women and the 3rd Floor Universe for Men, composed with around 20 internal employees. Tony Miranda Haute Couture exports more than 95% of its creations, contributing high added value to the economy and affirming Portugal’s image in international markets.

Research, study, experiment, in a permanent quest for “L’art de la Perfection” Tony Miranda is not only a designer but also a born entrepreneur. He establishes partnerships with universities and researchers, seeking to innovate in raw materials, and is a pioneer in the introduction of scented articles in home textiles and also in his women’s and men’s collections. The TM Cork collection, presented in the USA, is an example of innovation, mixing different raw materials where creativity and technique prevail. The various women’s and men’s collections presented throughout his career, nationally and internationally, have made this brand “L’art de la Perfection”.

“Nome da Rosa”

 Private collection, inspired by, “Nome da Rosa”, where innovative design and the incorporation of embroidered details, tattooed on the body of silks, transport the masculine universe to an image of spontaneous elegance. The subtlety of muslins and chiffons reinforces the timelessness of everyday life, giving special focus to contemporary tattoos and graffiti, referring us to a direct articulation between the urban and Haute Couture.

 Brand DNA

The Brand’s DNA is guided by rigor and professionalism, where comfort and elegance predominate in an evolution of the timelessness of fashion. The creator’s entrepreneurship and adventure give the Tony Miranda brand a constant search for other areas closely linked to fashion. In his latest project, he conveys details of his career, with various objects, opening a four-star hotel, the TM Luxury Apartments Lisbon, where he also presents his collections and other social events.
