The brand was created by the titular Nikolay Legenda and Olga Kapitonova, who founded N. LEGENDA in 2013, with an overall drive to create garments that could be defined as “dramatic minimalism”, with a desire to break gender norms along the way.

      With loud EDM blaring in the loudspeakers, it was quickly evident that this collection harkens back to Young British Artists and the rave revival movement, with bold typefaces on the belts and accessories, tweed shirts tied around the waist, puffy sleeves for both girls and boys and a penchant for comfortable, oversized clothing. Quilted fabrics in coats and jackets, black-and-white patterns across all the looks and several shimmering designs made from fabric that changed color from puce to blue under the runway lights made this rave party a wild success.
