Resumo: | The “Made in Portugal” label is in vogue. The recent entrepreneurial wave of local small independent brands, as well as the international prestige of the Portuguese textile industry have both contributed to its thriving. Notwithstanding, “Designed in Portugal” seems to be lagging in terms of its reach, notoriety, and value-added. Despite growing proof of the quality of Portuguese fashion-design, with brands such as Marques’Almeida recently receiving the prestigious LVMH prize, its national and international recognition still poses a challenge towards the growth and competitiveness of the Creative-Fashion sector, for which emerging talent could represent a solution. The aim of this exploratory study is to develop a comprehensive analysis of the actors and activities surrounding Portuguese Creative-Fashion Brands (CFBs), determining which challenges and opportunities they face to achieve success. To establish a clear framework of analysis, it proposes that an ecosystem perspective be applied over the Creative-Fashion industry. Moreover, through interviews with industry experts and young fashion brands, gathers relevant insights and draws conclusions. The findings revealed a profound polarization of the sector, propelled by insufficient cooperation between ecosystem actors. Furthermore, the challenges identified can be overcome if CFBs are able to seize the existing opportunities, on the condition of being backed by structural change at ecosystem-level. This dissertation provides newcomer brands and designers, or any other stakeholder in the industry, with an in-depth understanding of the Portuguese Creative-Fashion landscape, as well as delivering strategically valuable insights to help them navigate this otherwise unknown arena. |

A recente onda empreendedora de pequenas marcas locais, bem como o prestígio internacional da indústria têxtil, têm contribuído para a sua crescente valorização. Não obstante, a etiqueta “Designed in Portugal” não parece acompanhar este crescimento, ficando aquém em termos de alcance, notoriedade e valor acrescentado. Apesar de provas-dadas da qualidade do design de moda português, como a marca Marques'Almeida ter recebido recentemente o prestigiado prémio LVMH, o seu reconhecimento nacional e internacional continua a constituir um desafio para o crescimento e competitividade do setor de Moda-Creativa, para o qual talento emergente pode representar uma solução. O objetivo deste estudo exploratório é desenvolver uma análise abrangente dos atores e atividades que envolvem as Marcas de Moda-Criativa portuguesas, determinando os desafios e oportunidades que estas enfrentam para alcançar sucesso. Para estabelecer uma estrutura de análise clara, propõe que uma perspetiva de ecossistema seja aplicada sobre a indústria da Moda Criativa. Por meio de entrevistas a especialistas e jovens marcas de moda, reúne ainda insights relevantes e tira as devidas conclusões. Os resultados revelaram uma profunda polarização do setor, impulsionada pela insuficiente cooperação entre atores do ecossistema. Adicionalmente, os desafios identificados poderão ser superados se as marcas aproveitarem as oportunidades existentes, na condição de serem apoiadas por mudanças estruturais ao nível do ecossistema. Esta dissertação faculta às marcas e jovens designers, ou a qualquer parte interessada, uma visão aprofundada do cenário da Moda-Criativa portuguesa, fornecendo também esclarecimentos estratégicos que os ajudarão a navegar nesta arena desconhecida.Morand, PascalVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaBarreiros, Maria Margarida Leal Barona2023-05-15T09:37:59Z2022-10-172022-092022-10-17T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/41110TID:203133536enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:46:42Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/41110Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:33:47.184208Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
