Future Forest, we’re coming home!

There’s nothing like the magic of the forest, and we’re so proud to be part of this incredible festival community. Future Forest has been a huge part of our journey, and we’ve loved watching our sparkly, standout designs come to life on the dancefloors, stages, and under the stars.

RoadBugzz creations aren’t just something you wear, they’re a canvas for adventure and self-expression. Every piece is born from my time on the road, infused with imagination, mystical dreams, creepy obsessions, and a deep love for trippy aesthetics.

There’s something for every kind of style. Whether you thrive in vibrant, eye-catching colors and bold designs or embrace the dark, eerie, and beautifully strange. Each design is hand-drawn, and every item is crafted from scratch by me, ensuring that every piece is a true one-of-a-kind original. While some creations may share a similar energy, no two are ever identical.

Wherever I go, I bring my sewing machine, fabric, and patches, ready to create in the moment. Want a patch sewn onto your hoodie, bag, or jacket? I can stitch it on right there, on the spot, making each piece even more personal and unique to you.

With RoadBugzz, you’ll find unisex hoodies, crop tops, camisoles, t-shirts, leggings, pants, patches, gloves, and jewelry; if you can dream it, I can bring it to life. Wearing RoadBugzz isn’t just about fashion; it’s about making a statement and telling a story.

Join the ride—wear your weird, embrace the magic, and make every outfit an adventure.

Sikuiko is an urban alternative fashion trademark for men and women. It started as a non-conformist fashion design passion project for Gabrielle Perrault, an independant Montreal-based designer. Designing and producing her clothing by hand and selling it in limited editions, she became well-known in some underground circles for her unique style and craftsmanship. She now bridges the gap between underground culture and popular fashion, creating pieces that have an edgy and sexy style with sophisticated touches. Wild west colors and textures merge with victorian embellishments and steampunk style to give simple and modern silhouettes, but sometimes complex, which fuse with post-apocalyptic and boho chic styles. There are garments conceived to be worn into many different ways, offering a very interesting diversity.
They are more than pieces of clothing, they are statements. Stand out from the crowds and tell the world who you really are. Show your personality, your self-confidence and free yourself from the shackles of conformity.

SO CREATIVE, SO UNCONVENTIONAL, SO UNIQUE, SO REBEL, SO FREAK, SO PUNK, SO GYPSY, SO AUTHENTIC, SO YOURSELF, SO SIKUIKO
