K.NGSLEY

After stints at Versace, Celine, and Loewe, New York–based designer Kingsley Gbadegesin started K.NGSLEY in 2020 with the goal of putting Black, queer, femme, and trans people at the forefront of fashion. The resulting collections of genderless tank tops, shirts, and trousers feature thoughtfully placed cutouts and asymmetric shoulder straps that exude an effortless sex appeal, especially when cast in breezy off-whites and blues. Understated gold and silver jewelry become delicate accent pieces, bringing the brand’s daring looks to completion. Unique and universal, K.NGSLEY offers a captivating expression of marginalized perspectives.
