Harris Reed’s debut demi-couture collection once again encapsulates the designer’s mission of making genderless fashion the norm. Reed’s aesthetic was best described by GQ as a “Bowie-goes-Victorian spin on gender-fluid clothing”.

“I want everyone out there to feel like they can be their truest selves, and for me as a designer, that means I’m pushing the quote, unquote ‘extreme’ so far in one direction so that we can all find ourselves in the middle. What I want to do is bring the Harris Reed fluid world into the biggest kind of mainstream space in the most artistic way,” said Reed in an interview with Vogue.

The pieces are all custom made by Reed and their team and made from new and upcycled materials. In terms of the silhouette, masculine and feminine tailoring come together seamlessly.

“These clothes are here to prove a point. This is not about selling you something on the rack. This is about hopefully trying to change the way that we think about things and see things. I’m not trying to be controversial. I’m just trying to do what feels like the right thing for me.”
