Leslie Kirchhoff

LESLIE KIRCHHOFF is an ice cube innovator, cocktail consultant, photographer and DJ, whose multi-disciplinary magic extends from the pages of Vogue to packed dancefloors across the globe and beyond. Having sampled some of the world’s most innovative mixology in her travels as a DJ, Leslie noticed a distinct lack of creative attention being paid to the cocktail’s arguable centerpiece – the ice cube. What began as a series of arty ice experiments in her tiny New York kitchen grew into a passionate affair with all things frozen and a thriving business at the intersection of art, science and entertaining.

Since launching her creative studio Disco Cubes in 2018 with a profile in The New York Times, Leslie has become an in-demand collaborator behind the camera, turntables, and bar, for brands like Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren and Moét Chandon.

“Where the New York fashion set goes, you’ll likely find Kirchhoff,” said Style.com about Leslie Kirchhoff, who was named one of their Top 10 New DJs, and also “the coolest girl in the room” by Paper Mag in their Beautiful People Issue. After learning to DJ in Paris in 2011, she made her New York debut and quickly merged with the fashion scene (unsurprisingly, since during the day she worked as a photographer shooting for Vogue, Teen Vogue, Glamour, GQ, Michael Kors, and more). Her skills on the decks have brought her clients like Dolce & Gabbana, Vera Wang, Cartier, and American Express, to name a few, and she’s performed around the world in cities such as Paris, London, Berlin, Tokyo, Stockholm, Mexico City, Miami, Las Vegas, and more.
