Designer found dead in latex suit, with hands bound in NYC apartment

A talented lighting designer was found dead yesterday wearing a latex suit and mask with his hands cuffed behind his back in his luxury Manhattan apartment, law enforcement sources said.

Alejandro Bulaevsky, 26, who graduated from Parsons the New School for Design and worked on several glitzy New York and Las Vegas projects, was discovered sprawled on the kitchen floor of his apartment at 90 West Street at about 5:24 p.m. Monday, cops said.

Police said there were no signs of forced entry and it did not appear that anything had been stolen.

Sources said Bulaevsky’s boyfriend in England couldn’t get in touch with him and called his brother, who, in turn, contacted the building superintendent. The super then entered the apartment and made the grisly find.

Bulaevsky, who had previously lived in California, was last seen on video surveillance entering the lobby of his building at 8 p.m. Sunday, sources said. He did not show up to work on Monday.

An autopsy will be performed by the medical examiner to determine a cause of death.
