Career

Bio

Marques is the man behind the brand carrying his family’s surname and once described by Esquire Middle East as “an Authority in Luxury”.

 

Based between Dubai and Lisbon, Marques comes from a small town in the Portuguese countryside but over the years his will to achieve more along with a passion for luxury led him to study the field at the International University of Monaco.

 

This step ultimately led him to the United Arab Emirates and starting a career in the first Arab Hypercar manufacturer – W Motors, a boutique company dedicated to creating multi-million euro hypercars.

 

It was in Dubai where his persona gathered significant attention across social media, leading to a nomination as one of the most promising content creators in the Middle East along with many projects and experiences over the years: from driving Formula 1 cars in Abu Dhabi’s YAS Circuit to shooting an editorial at the Portuguese former royal palace with looks worth over half a million euros.

 

Over the years these experiences added up to the attendance of Men’s Fashion Week in Milan and Paris – ultimately leading to Marques’ decision to establish his namesake label.
