Geschiedenis
Founded in 2019 by Hisan Silva and Pedro Batalha, Dendezeiro emerged from the creative scene of Salvador. The brand gained prominence for its participation in São Paulo Fashion Week, where it challenged industry standards regarding sizing and gender. Its cultural significance lies in its documentation of Brazilian identity through the BR-00 project, which maps diverse skin tones and body shapes. This approach positions the brand as a contributor to contemporary inclusive fashion history.
