Model ON Designer Dance OFF

​Strut, twirl, and maybe even moonwalk your way into the wildest showdown during London Fashion Week Model ON Designer Dance OFF!

​Hosted by the ever-glamorous Chelsea Collective, this event is where the catwalk collides with the dance floor, and everyone is sure that the energy will spread to the crowd of front rows and all the VIP guests.

​Will the models out-sashay the designers expectations of their creativity? Or will the audience drop some moves that leave the models in the dust? There’s only one way to find out.

​We have a family office film finance meet over dinner with an amazing Brazilian themed three course set menu before the energy kicks off. Seating is from 6pm to 8pm.

​Those guests that can't do dinner can join the networking film and creatives drinks below. This will give guests a chance to network preshow. Do dress in style and speak about the questionable dance moves we’re expecting as icebreakers. Keep your moves ready but don’t practice your victory dance in public until then.

​Expect a riot of fashion, music, food and spontaneous dance battles. Whether you’re a seasoned twirler or your signature move is the “awkward shuffle,” there’s a spot for you in the crowd—or maybe even on the dance floor if you’re feeling brave. We will be there to keep the energy high, the laughter rolling, and the dance-offs fair (no bribing the host with glitter, please).

​Dress code? Whatever makes you feel ready to strut, spin, or slide. Sequins, heels or boots —just make sure you can move in it. Bring your best runway walk, your boldest dance moves, and a healthy sense of humor. Who knows? You might just witness the birth of the next viral dance craze—or at least some unforgettable fashion faux pas.

​So mark your calendar, charge your phone (for all those inevitable slow-mo videos), and get ready for a night where fashion and funkiness go toe-to-toe. Model ON Designer Dance OFF is coming, and it’s going to be a spectacle you won’t want to miss.

​Maxine Booth is the hostess post 8pm and we expect you to match her energy! https://www.instagram.com/boothmaxine

​Dominika Kowalska

​My name is Dominika and I’m an artist and sustainable designer. I came to the fashion industry because of my love for nature and to be the change I want  to see in this world/ to change it cause it’s one of the most polluting industries in the world. In my practice I love to use upcycled leather and innovative alternative textiles like biomaterials (alginate etc). For me textiles and movement are a form of expression that’s why visual storytelling is so important to me. I love using contrasts, duality and avangarde in my work. Over the years I acquired lots of experience, especially on set working at LFW for the past 3 seasons. Now it’s my turn to be on the other side of the show- as a designer. In the future I would love to orchestrate my own runway show and pull all the strings./ In the future I want to dress other artists and connect over craftsmanship.

​Joao

​Sunbalanci is a vision of art and how it reflects on our inner thoughts of self discovery. A mirror that presents the possibility of rebellion against what people think you path should be. It shows what can you create and build with the power of confidence.

​This brand was built on Joao, creating the courage to step out of my noise bubble, that was holding him back from achieving my full potential. Sunbalanci is how he needs balance in life and stability, so he can cultivate his skills and enter the chaos of the world with trust in myself and power enough to serve my purpose in life.
