A course by Ronaldo Fraga
Born in Minas Gerais in southeast Brazil, Ronaldo Fraga discovered his passion for drawing as a young child and hasn't taken pen off paper since. Having completed studies at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, the Parsons School of Design in New York, and Central Saint Martins in London, he was twice listed as one of the top 10 most influential designers in the world by London's Design Museum. He has also been described by the Brazilian media as ""the poet of fashion"" and ""the most political stylist out there.""
In addition to founding and managing his own brand, Ronaldo has published several books and received awards for his work as a costume designer for theater, cinema, and television. He also carries out design acculturation and job creation projects in various communities throughout Brazil.
