Hi, my name is Harris Reed, I'm a gender fluid fashion designer and I live in London, England.

The superlative

[Harris's designs are worn by some of the biggest celebrity names.]

To-infinitive

[Recently inspiring big names like MAC wanting to collaborate.]

What I do and who I am is all about trying to fight to blur the lines between what men and women and non-binary individuals can wear.

I believe and look at clothing being a vessel that transports the wearer and the people that see them to another space, another time.

[Fluidity is the inspiration for the London Fashion Week collection.]

I think it's extremely important to be boundaryless because I think if we learned anything from 2020, coming into 2021,

we have been through so much and I think it's really made a lot of us kind of relook at not just what we do and who we are but the way of the world and I think it was a really big wake-up call.

So I think for me, it's so important to kind of break all barriers and break all boundaries.

[Harris was the designer behind Harry Style's Vogue cover.]

It was quite cool to be described as Harry Styles' secret fashion weapon.

He is an extraordinary man. I owe so much to him in terms of, you know, he was my first client. He took me on, he trusted me, he loved me, and he also believed in the vision of what I stand for.

I couldn't do what I do without him, you know, he's allowed me to not only have my work seen by millions of people but he's also allowed me to explore myself creatively and to kind of express my design.

I think for me as well as a designer who has a message.

I really look at a lot of what he does as well to kind of see how I can more thoughtfully, I guess, you know, work in my messaging into my designs as well.

So, I think he's incredible. Shout out to you, Harry Styles!
