At the centre of Harris Reeds sartorial journey has always been his desire to change the way people express their identities through clothing. Fluiditys essence is adaptable, evolutionary, and dynamic, and Harriss work constantly disrupts the divide between men's and women's clothing.
His pieces have been worn by Harry Styles, Adele, Sam Smith, Iman, and Beyoncand with each piece he has generated an instantly iconic cultural moment, pushing conversations about gender expression into the mainstream. Fluid examines historical antecedents of fluidity, questions old power structures, and urges people to find their authentic selves in this new avenue of fashion.
With stunning photography, resplendent fashion, and illustrations of Harris's design process, Fluid takes readers beyond the idea of clothes as mere garments, reasoning that clothes are a nexus of art, philosophy, and history that can be used to help shape our culture and challenge understandings of gender. With this book, Harris Reed affirms that fluid is the future of fashion.
