About Mariusz Przybylski
Polish designer Mariusz Przybylski returns to Berlin Fashion Week this season with KICK OFF, a new menswear collection that celebrates contrasts, craftsmanship and two decades of creative work. Presented on July 2, the show marks an important milestone for the designer, who first introduced his work outside Poland in Berlin more than ten years ago. Now, as he celebrates the 20th anniversary of his brand, Przybylski comes back to the city where his international journey began.
Over the past twenty years, Mariusz Przybylski has established himself as one of Poland’s most respected fashion designers. His collections are recognised for their refined tailoring, artistic references and careful attention to detail. Drawing inspiration from art, cinema and cultural heritage, he continues to develop a contemporary vision of menswear that combines tradition with innovation.
With KICK OFF, Przybylski not only celebrates an important anniversary but also returns to the city where his international journey began. As part of Berlin Fashion Week, the collection offers a thoughtful exploration of craftsmanship, cultural identity and the many contrasts that define modern fashion.
A Personal Return to Berlin Fashion Week
For Mariusz Przybylski, this presentation is more than another runway show. Returning to Berlin represents a full-circle moment in his career, reconnecting him with the city that played an important role in his early international recognition. At the same time, the anniversary collection reflects two decades of refining a distinctive design language that balances elegance, innovation and meticulous craftsmanship.
Lightweight fabrics and fluid silk silhouettes are paired with architectural tailoring, while patinated garments, leather accents and custom prints introduce texture and depth without overwhelming the collection. Hand embroidery further highlights the designer’s commitment to craftsmanship, creating garments that feel both contemporary and deeply personal.
Rather than presenting masculinity through traditional stereotypes, KICK OFF embraces confidence alongside sensitivity, precision alongside softness. The result is a collection that feels sophisticated, expressive and relevant to the evolving conversation around modern menswear.
Polish Heritage Meets Contemporary Design
The venue itself plays an important role in the story behind the collection. Staged in a socialist-realist building in eastern Berlin, the setting evokes memories of the designer’s childhood in Poland while providing a striking architectural backdrop for the show. The building’s industrial atmosphere is complemented by handcrafted elements inspired by Polish folk art, reinforcing the dialogue between tradition and innovation that defines Przybylski’s work.
By bringing Polish craftsmanship into conversation with Berlin’s creative landscape, KICK OFF becomes more than a fashion presentation. It is a reflection on identity, heritage and the creative possibilities that emerge when different cultural influences meet.
