YCCMH - Hello my friend. Let´start with a quick introduction, shall we? Please, introduce yourself.
A. d. O. - My name is Anderson de Oliveira. I´m from Salvador - Brazil, I´m 32 years old and I love Fashion :-)
YCCMH - Where are you located and what do you do?
A. d. O. - I live in Düsseldorf (Germany) and I work as a salesman for a luxury store (Philipp Plein). I am also responsible for the decoration of the Store and the window - Visual Merchandising.
Seeing as I also aid the staff visual, I get the chance to go to Milan Fashion Week, to support on backstage.

Y.C.C.M.H. - Where’d you get your start and what inspired you?
A. d. O. - To be honest I think it started as a child. I always liked watching fashion shows on TV and see fashion magazines, like Vogue, Elle, etc..
And I can´t forget the cinema. both of them, past and current movies, inspired me a lot.
And I can´t forget the cinema. both of them, past and current movies, inspired me a lot.
But my inspiration I took from Brazilian folklore, my culture, traditional festivals, etc. All I see: colors, fabrics, people on the streets... Everything inspires me...
Y.C.C.M.H. - We´re talking fashion here, so describe your style.
A. d. O. - My style is free. Depends a lot on how I wake up. Depends on my mood (laughs)
I love colors, flowers... If I'm humorous, I wear a floral shirt or some animals, striped socks, with shoes, pants and a bag of one color. But I also like to use simply black and white, Chanel style. That doesn´t mean I'm sad, just in a quieter day.
Y.C.C.M.H. - Who or what inspired your sense of style growing up?
A. d. O. - Different cultures, people, countries. The thing that I most love to do in life is travel. Travel for me, It´s the best way to inspire me.

Y.C.C.M.H. - For advertising, what would you choose: Digital or film?
A. d. O. - Both. We have many good things we can learn from digital and with film.
Y.C.C.M.H. - Favorite article of clothing or accessory from Philipp Plein.
A. d. O. - I love the leather jackets.
Y.C.C.M.H. - What’s the most inspiring you´ve seen lately?
A. d. O. - I like a lot of Italian brands. The latest collection of Prada is wonderful.
A. d. O. - Nowadays we have many brands. Many amazing brands. It´s not easy to name only one. Among all of them we find shirts, pants, jackets that are super interesting.
A. d. O. - Belts and shoes. Men who don´t know how to choose the right ones, completely spoil the look. Be very careful when choosing.
A. d. O. - This question is impossible to answer. I love music. I think I´ll put a lot of songs: pop, classic, jazz, black music, Brazilian music, African rhythms, Asiatic songs, Arabic music... a bit of everything. I think it will be hard to choose my favorite songs.
A. d. O. - My home. Alone. Sometimes, I need a break from everything.
A. d. O. - For myself.
A. d. O. - I love Caipirinha. Sometimes, I like to drink it not with cachaça from Brazil, but with Champagne - Cristal. The taste is sensational (smile).
A. d. O. - I would say that to have style and dressing well, we do not need to dress up. Let us just be ourselves. Of course, we have to keep a little of what´s happening in the fashion world. We need to read fashion magazines, websites, blogs, whatever.
And if you guys, need help choosing what to wear, you can write me on Facebook, I´ll help you with pleasure.
