One collection. More than one way to move. This seven-image activewear exploration builds from core pieces to added layers, two jacket lengths, and combinations that still feel like one visual system. Matthew Solomon's design approach for Kr38 Creative treats versatility as part of the story.

A stage costume has to do more than look right. It has to reveal character, support movement, and help an audience understand the world before a word is spoken. Matthew Solomon's costume design for Kr38 Creative brings story, silhouette, and performance into the same frame.

Costume design does more than dress a performer. It helps build the world they step into.

Matthew Solomon’s work for Kr38 Creative begins with story, silhouette , movement, and the details that make a character feel real.

We are thrilled to share the latest digital design timelapse from Designer @matthewsolomo for Kr38 Creative LLC. This concept highlights a stunning, custom performance look tailored specifically for a Lyra aerialist.

Inspired by the powerful elegance and striking textures of the snow leopard, this high-performance costume balances sleek aerodynamics with dramatic, stage-ready textures. Designing for aerial arts requires a meticulous understanding of movement, fabric durability, and apparatus safety, ensuring the performer remains completely unrestricted while suspended in the air.

From initial anatomy sketch to a fully realized, wild-inspired masterpiece, this is how we approach custom design for specialized specialty performers.

Expanding the boundaries of live performance.

Innovation isn't just about what the audience sees on stage, it’s about how they experience it. We are thrilled to integrate advanced silent disco headphone technology into our upcoming projects at Kr38 Creative LLC.

By utilizing multi-channel audio, we are creating a fully immersive environment where sound design directly interfaces with our visual concepts. Imagine experiencing the subtle, glowing ambiance of a character's world or a custom soundscape mixed directly to your ears, synchronized perfectly with wearable tech on stage.

The potential for intimate, multi-sensory storytelling is limitless, and we can't wait to show you how we're blending audio technology with physical costume design.

Behind every breathtaking performance is a meticulous design process. We are thrilled to share this digital design timelapse for a new light-up ballet concept costume by the talented Designer @matthewsolomo, created for Kr38 Creative LLC.

Inspired by the whimsical world of Peter Pan’s Tinkerbell, this concept merges organic, woodland textures with cutting-edge, illuminated elements engineered specifically for the stage. Elevating this concept is the exceptional artistry of Pacific Northwest Ballet dancer, @nicsolly1.

At Kr38 Creative LLC, we strive to push the boundaries of costume design and technology to create unforgettable visual experiences.

As we hit the home stretch of the year, a lot of folks are taking a hard look at where their final investments will make the biggest impact. It’s been a year of bold moves, new partnerships, and some seriously exciting creative developments across film, live entertainment, and immersive experiences.

I’m lining up several 2026 projects that are now entering the investment and early partner phase. If you’re evaluating where to place your end of year capital, 2026 entertainment is where it should go.

I’d be happy to set up a call and walk you through the upcoming opportunities. by @matthewsolomo
