The Look
To conmemorate Condega’s 10th anniversary, the brand launched the Serie ‘S’, Condega’s new flagship. This introduction meant a new blend and a total restyling of the brand’s image. This translates not only in a new ring for the Serie ‘F’, but a whole new logo and image for the Serie ‘S’ that represents Condega’s new values of quality and style
