Vera Caldeira is one of the souls behind Mustique , a Portuguese fashion brand that has been growing exponentially.

We were very curious to understand what "feeds" the co-founder of this creative, colorful and innovative brand that turns 5 this year (congratulations!)

We are fans here and have been following the growth closely, as they are our "neighbors" at Mercado Stylista, which will now take place again next weekend, from the 27th to the 28th of May at FIARTIL in Estoril.
