Basic chic

In 2007, Portuguese designer Ricardo Preto started showcasing his eponymous men’s and women’s collections at Lisbon Fashion Week. Such exposure led to successful collaborations with Levi’s, Energie and Nike, brands drawn to his clean lines and structured silhouettes —references to his background in architecture.

Meanwhile, simple, timeless staples make up his collection for U by Ricardo Preto. Stock up on plain or printed tees in subdued hues, comfy tailored shorts, and classics like the all-season denim jacket. Wear them together, or with other apparel from your closet, to achieve that comfortable yet stylish look.

Ricardo Preto is available in Rustan’s Department Store.
