I am a costume maker and avant garde fashion designer. My creations are mainly to be viewed on a stage or a catwalk. The main aim of my designs is to create an impact on the viewer and evoke feelings. The costumes are not for everyday use. Each costume has been created as a one off, the techniques used to create them have been developed by myself, by experimenting with textiles, fabric and paint . I own all the design rights. Each costume requires special care and each is cleaned separately from everything else according to the label. In most cases I re- use the purchased fabric by processing or dying them, I never use fabric straight from the shop. The main motifs in my designs are asymmetry, destruction, dramatism, macabre. All costumes have been hand made myself.

“Miłość platoniczna, wyidealizowana, niespełniona. Taka miłość jest najbardziej dramatyczna. Jak gdyby pokochać kogoś kto jest martwy”

Katarzyna Koniecka

“Молодой польский дизайнер Катажина Конецка (Katarzyna Koniecka), как она сама о себе говорит на своем же сайте: “kostiumograf, projectant mody, stylista”, вытворяет такие вещи, что аж захватывает дух. Медицинский фетиш + стимпанк + футуризм, как такое можно смешать в одном флаконе? Однако же Катаржина смешивает, смело, ярко и с залихватской бесшабашностью, свойственной только молодым талантам на взлете!”

Надежда и гордость современной авангардной польской моды!
