The name Henrik Vibskov is most commonly associated not only with a fashion label, but a multitude of twisted yet tantalizing universes created in relation to each collection.

"Big Wet Shiny Boobies"‚ "The Fantabulous Bicycle Music Factory"‚ "The Solar Donkey Experiment" and "The Slippery Spiral Situation" are just a few titles of shows Henirk Vibskov has produced, each title referring to a different but equally mesmerizing world and set of logic.

Between designing new collections biannually and creating the universes surrounding them, Henrik keeps himself occupied Touring the world as the drummer for electronic musician Trentemøller, and exhibiting at art museums and galleries around the world.
