Jacek Gleba, a graduate from Central Saint Martins with a decade in fashion education, unveils a tender final collection influenced by choreographer Vaslav Nijinsky. His designs, which emphasize intimacy and movement, feature practical yet elegant daywear, contrasting the usual queer fashion aesthetic. Gleba, whose heritage includes a Spanish mother and Polish father, draws parallels between his background and Nijinsky's. His garments showcase open seams and flowing designs, emphasizing queerness as a performative act rather than merely a visual style. This fresh take on ballet-inspired fashion highlights movement and personal expression over conventional themes.
I always say that my fashion is about the game of flirting; not so much the actual intercourse, it's about everything that comes between.
I feel like queerness is something you act out, not something you wear. I wanted my collection to physically manifest that kind of movement.
