Laura Cangussu
Born and raised in Dracena, a city in the countryside of São Paulo, Laura have always had a curious eye towards beauty. Since a very young age, she could refine her eye at fittings at Aurora’s atelier, her dressmaker. and Laura's mother have always cultivated the classic way of making clothes, the handmade sewing with finesse in finishing.
Laura grew up surrounded by fashionable images, stylish clothes and sunny summer scenarios, both in Dracena and on trips to her family homeland, Italy.
She studied law and devoted herself to work with environmental law. After working in this area for a few years, decided to work in fashion industry. She went to Milan to study and on her comeback to Brazil she was invited to be part of Harper’s Bazaar magazine team, which had just released its Brazilian edition.
When she already held the stylist role in the magazine, Laura decided to slow down, reprogram her lifestyle, allowing to look at herself completely differently, in a reinvented way. A new look at life, a new look at fashion. More calm and conscious.
In this seam of memories and rescue of connections, the first brand’s collection arises: Dracena.
