Rio, installed in Knightsbridge

From June through September 2025, PatBO installed Girl in Rio at Harrods: a dedicated space built around the campaign of the same name, presenting key pieces from the Resort, Spring and Summer collections against a set drawn from the campaign’s Brazilian imagery.

The installation gave the brand a four-month selling presence in London’s most important luxury department store, pairing signature silhouettes, prints and artisanal textures with an assortment planned for the Harrods client.
