​LED BY TWO CREATIVE POWERHOUSES

​Alizarin, Kostume Kult, Big Apple Roll
Alizarin is an award-winning NYC-based artist, designer, creative director, and skater who brings together art, fashion, technology, light, and movement. A graduate of NYU Tisch’s Interactive Telecommunications Program and Shenkar College of Engineering and Design Visual Communications, she has spent over a decade creating bold visual worlds and interactive experiences for international brands, rockstars, and creative communities.

​A longtime Kostume Kult creative and designer for Big Apple Roll, Alizarin brings that same playful, maximalist spirit to skating: turning gear into wearable art, adding light and visibility for greater safety, and encouraging everyone to express their most glorious selves.

​For Alizarin, there’s no such thing as “just” skate gear. It’s a canvas.
