The first partnership between the brands introduces innovative crochet techniques, 3D knitting, illustrations, and football references, with a campaign starring Zé Roberto.
Piet, a brand founded by Pedro Andrade, presents its first collaboration with KidSuper, the label founded by artist and designer Colm Dillane, in a partnership that embodies friendship and creative trust. The collab stems from a long-standing relationship between Pedro and Colm, built long before any official partnership existed.
The collection begins from the concept of craftsmanship, understood as the integration of manual work, technical development, and textile innovation. KidSuper contributes its artistic language, known for hand-painted illustrations, faces, and camouflage patterns. Piet applies its proprietary techniques such as manual crochet, 3D knit, embroidered constructions, and textile experimentation marked by precision.
The development of the collection occurred continuously and in a decentralized manner. Colm shared artworks and visual references, while Piet’s team conducted material tests, piece construction, and technical solutions. Decisions were made remotely, fluidly, and intuitively. The level of trust was so great that Colm saw the finished garments only one day before the runway show in Paris, where the collection was first presented in January of this year.
The result reflects the convergence between the two brands. KidSuper artworks are incorporated into the garments using Piet-developed processes that imprint the brand’s identity on finishing, pattern making, and textile construction.
