with a feminine aesthetic, pushing the boundaries with masculinity and continuing
the aesthetics of drag queens, mixed with black comedy fantasy.
Prodiashvili`s collections are an exotic forest, which turns everything into
contemporary, gender blurring interpretations. Innovation comes together in
every sketch and it is all based on the duality of culture and identity, he develops
a hybrid wardrobe, carefully staged in daring theatrical show.
Aka Prodiashvili introduces a new character in his SS21 collection – Beverly Hills
native video game geek.
Inspired by Mortal Combat, Matrix, and all his favorite fictional characters, this
collection is nothing short of extraordinary – combining fantasy with drag; Sci-fi
theme with sexiness.
Voluptuous dresses are now cut in body-conscious silhouettes. Wide leg pants are
balanced out with tiny bra tops, all cut in latex – dominant in Aka’s collections.
Rooted in the label’s DNA floral capes are definitely the collection’s key pieces and
the most daring of the collection.
