The KUST. brand, known for its minimalist designs and fashion-conscious approach, has teamed up with Radek Pestka, influencer, model and DJ, to create a limited edition RDSLAV x KUST swim collection. The result of the collaboration is a capsule line inspired by simplicity, functionality and sustainability – values close to both creators.
A bath collection in a minimalist spirit
The RDSLAV x KUST project produced two carefully refined models:
-
KUST. SWIM BRIEF 01 – a modern take on the classic swim brief. Their cut is designed to accentuate the silhouette, and the subtle logo in black and white gives the whole thing an elegant, subdued character. This is the choice for those who appreciate comfort and aesthetics at the highest level.
-
KUST. SWIM SHORT 01 – lightweight, sporty shorts with a comfortable lining, functional pockets and a distinctive logo on the sides. Great for both the beach and everyday summer activities.
The campaign promoting the collection was kept in a black and white style, perfectly reflecting Radek’s minimalist and timeless approach to fashion.
Sustainable production – the foundation of the RDSLAV x KUST collection
The entire collection has been produced locally, in Poland, using regenerated nylon derived from plastic recovered from the seas and fabrics from dead stock. This choice of materials is an expression of the KUST. brand’s commitment to a circular design model and a responsible approach to the environment and ethical production.
“Collaborating with KUST. was a very natural thing for me,” Radek Pestka emphasises. “We share an approach to design that focuses on quality, thoughtful solutions and respect for things that are meant to last for years.”
Radek Pestka’s vision and personal style
Radek Pestka, more widely known thanks to his victory on Top Model, has been combining fashion, music and social media presence for years. His personal style, sense of aesthetics and experience have influenced every aspect of the collection – from cuts to fabrics to the overall visual concept.
“I always wanted to create something that fully reflects my style: simplicity of form, comfort and durability,” he explains. “I searched for a long time for the perfect swimwear – one that not only looks great, but is also comfortable. Together with KUST. we worked out every detail. Black is my trademark – it’s versatile and always on trend. This is how we came up with the matching briefs and the looser, but well-tailored shorts. These are things that stay with us for a long time – not just for the summer.”
RDSLAV x KUST – a collection that promotes confidence
The project also has a personal dimension for Radek. As he admits, the creative process was an opportunity to break down his own barriers and create fashion that supports others on a similar journey.
“This collection is for everyone – regardless of their figure, sense of confidence or where they are at the moment. I wanted to show that swimwear can give mental and physical comfort. We don’t have to feel perfect to look good. The most important thing is to feel like yourself,” Radek concludes.
