MAO Public Relations is looking for Fashion PR and Show Production Intern

After years of working in the fashion industry separately and together, brothers Mauricio and Roger Padilha launched MAO Public Relations. In its first decade, MAO has successfully introduced new talent to the fashion industry as well as conceptualized and produced runway shows for various top Fashion Designers.
Native New Yorker Mauricio graduated from Parson’s School of Design with a BFA in Fashion Design and an associate degree in Fashion Marketing. Upon graduation, Mauricio worked as a Public Relations Director for various young designers until taking on the challenge of starting his own firm. In February ’97 he established MAO and in August 1998 opened a showroom in the heart of SoHo.
Roger, on the other hand, took the design route for his first 7 years in the industry as a design assistant for various design houses. In 1994 he started his own fashion line called Spooky, which made him a young designer star overnight. Until the company’s demise in 1998, Spooky was sold in major department stores and boutiques and appeared in most major fashion publications, broadcast and on the backs of countless celebrities.
Now in its 21st year, MAO Public Relations is enjoying a reputation as one of the hardest working Fashion PR Agencies in the Fashion Industry. The Padilha Brothers look forward to continued growth and seek to further the professional careers of their clients through promotion, publicity and image management by approaching each collection as if it were their own.
