Slavik
Slavik is a Ukrainian homeless man who gained attention for his unique fashion sense, creating striking outfits from discarded clothing found in dumpsters and shelters. Over two years, photographer Jurko Djačišin documented Slavik's eclectic style, which challenged stereotypes about homelessness and caught the eye of the fashion world. His story turned into a phenomenon, leading to significant interest from major fashion houses, yet it took a dark turn when Slavik mysteriously disappeared in 2013, leaving his fate unknown. His legacy continues to intrigue, especially as elements of his style have been appropriated by high-profile designers without his consent.
