Ishara Jayathilake, born in Colombo, Sri Lanka in 1991, completed her fashion design studies at Northumbria University in the UK. She gained recognition when her collection debuted at London Fashion Week in 2015. Later, she moved to Oslo for a master’s degree in fashion and costume design at the National Academy of Arts. Her master’s project, “East Meets West,” earned a nomination at the 2020 Designers’ Nest Award Show in Copenhagen. Ishara has also explored the intersection of fashion and colonialism in installations at the Danish Design Museum and Prins Eugens Waldemarsudde Museum in Stockholm.
Magnus Opsahl Hofseth, a fashion designer and artist in Oslo, Norway, holds a bachelor’s degree in fashion and industry from Oslo Metropolitan University (2019) and a master’s in fashion and society from OsloMet (2021). He blends masculine and feminine styles to challenge traditional men’s fashion, often addressing themes like toxic masculinity and queer history. Magnus, who delivers lectures on queer fashion, currently assists the prestigious sportswear brand Norrøna.
Wisła Nicieja has collaborated with Teatr 21 for 12 years, designing costumes that blend theatricality with contemporary fashion. Her costumes make powerful statements and remain sensitive to the individuals who wear them in productions such as “Rewolucja, której nie było” and “Jak przestałem być idealny.”
