Noctum x Antigona performance
The recent performance at the Prague Fetish Weekend (14.–17. 11. 2024) marked a significant milestone for Noctum, our brand that embodies the spirit of avant-garde fetish wear. This unique event was not just a fashion show, it was an immersive experience that showcased the essence of Noctum through a blend of artistic expression, dance, and individual identity. This was only possible thanks to the creative collaboration with Antigona Crew, who also took care of the choreography.

The Transformation is Coming
The performance started with Tereza Silon´s somatic vocal entry. Silon captivated the audience with their sound piece inspired by their work "Good Gardens" (2023-now) and "ESOPHAGUS: EveryBody Ecstatic" (2021). Their introduction set the tone for what was to come — an unconventional showcase that promised to challenge expectations and engage the senses. From the very beginning it was clear that this would not be a traditional runway show. Silon tried to create an atmosphere that was both intriguing and unsettling, altering the energy of the space dramatically.
As Silon's performance unfolded, Tomáš from the Antigona crew entered, bringing his dynamic movement and energy to the stage. Accompanied by the music piece Serpent scan from Halv Drøm, who created also the sound for the first video of our production. The playful interaction of Silon and Tomáš created a lively scene filled with vitality and sensuality. This initial collaboration laid the groundwork for a deeper exploration of identity and self-expression.
A Collective Journey of Self-Expression
As more performers joined in, the stage transformed into a vibrant tapestry of personalities flowing through the space. The performance reached a pivotal moment when attention focused on Tomáš, who confronted his inner demons at center stage. Surrounded by fellow performers, he underwent a symbolic transformation — a moment when his look was enhanced with additional pieces from Noctum's collection. This act represented not just a change in appearance but a transformation of self, capturing the brand's ethos of embracing individuality.
The culmination of the performance brought all elements together at the front of the stage, highlighting Noctum's spirit — an embodiment of shadow play, sensuality and uniqueness.
Celebrating Diversity and Individuality
Each outfit was made to reflect the original characteristics of its wearer, emphasizing their individuality rather than enforcing uniformity. The makeup and styling were also designed to celebrate each performer's essence, ensuring they felt empowered and authentic.
This performance was a celebration of queerness, self-expression, and community. It showcased how fashion can transcend mere aesthetics to become a powerful medium for personal storytelling and embrace diversity in all its forms.
