In March 2026, Saul Nash presented a specially commissioned live performance for the V&A’s Fashion in Motion series in South Kensington. 

Staged within the Raphael Court, the work unfolded across three public performances, drawing from the surrounding Renaissance setting. Eight dancers, many long-time collaborators, transformed the space into a ritualistic environment, moving in unison to a live sound installation by Azekel. Blurring the line between audience and performer, the piece evoked a sense of sanctuary through collective motion and rhythm.

The dancers wore looks from Nash’s SS26 collection, exploring gesture, intimacy and human connection through form-fitting silhouettes and expressive detailing, marking an evolution of both the brand and its creative community.
