Co-founder and designer, Dendezeiro
Hisan Silva
Brazilian
Hisan Silva co-founded Dendezeiro with Pedro Batalha in Salvador, Bahia, in 2019. The pair started the label in response to a lack of representation in fashion, and it works with agender, size-inclusive designs rooted in Brazilian and Bahian culture. Dendezeiro debuted at São Paulo Fashion Week with a fashion film and has since shown at SPFW and Rio Fashion Week.
