Icy Gays is a series of off-site events curated by fashion designer and owner of Vogue Fabrics Lyall Hakaraia. Originally conceived at London’s ICA, Icy Gays has travelled to Glastonbury, New Zealand and Australia and hosted performers such as Aerea Negrot, Hard Ton, Joey Arias, Jonny Woo, Bourgeois & Maurice and many more.

Last week ‘ICY GAYS’ was brought to the Barbican as part of The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier.

Highlights included Bolton-born, Berlin-based music producer planningtorock, London Cabaret Award 2014 nominee and intimate diary performer Ruth Less, Greek-born diva extraordinaire A Man to Pet, and drag pensioner superstar Jeannie Dee. Style icon Princess Julia offered musical entertainment alongside DJ sets from East London fashion stalwart The Lovely Jonjo, Sibling director and co-founder Cozette McCreery and Love magazine editor Jack Sunnucks.

Ground breaking international artist working in light Ben Kreukniet joined the stellar line-up with a new light installation, whilst film maker Sharna Osborne presented a selection of fashion films from East London-based designers, such as Chris Raeburn, Sibling, Christian Cowan-Sanluis, CLM/Chris Sweeney and Meadham Kirchhoff.
