Harris Reed Kicks Off LFW With A Bold Message
India - Feb 17, 2024
Harris Reed, the London-based designer known for their gender-fluid creations, kicked off London Fashion Week on Friday with a show that was both visually stunning and politically charged. The collection, titled "The Rig," was inspired by the working class and featured strong shoulders, utilitarian fabrics, and pops of color. But it was the message of the show that resonated most strongly.
Reed, who is non-binary, used their platform to call for greater inclusivity in the fashion industry. The show featured models of all genders and body types, and the clothing was designed to be worn by anyone, regardless of their identity.
"I want to create clothes that empower people to be themselves," Reed said after the show. "Fashion should be for everyone, not just a select few."
Reed's message was well-received by critics and fashion insiders alike. Vogue called the collection "a powerful statement about identity and self-expression," while The Guardian said it was "a reminder that fashion can be a force for good."
The Rig is not just a fashion collection; it's a manifesto. It's a call for a more inclusive and equitable fashion industry, and it's a message that is sure to resonate with people all over the world.
