Fluid: A Fashion Revolution

by Harris Reed

Influential designer Harris Reed explores the world of gender-defying fashion in this richly illustrated monograph

In Fluid, fashion designer Harris Reed introduces the world to a new era in fashion. At the center of Reed's sartorial journey has always been his desire to change the way people express their identities through clothing. Fluidity's essence is adaptable, evolutionary, and dynamic, and Reed's work constantly disrupts the divide between "men's" and "women's" clothing. Each of Reed's innovative and provocative pieces have generated instantly iconic cultural moments, pushing conversations about gender expression into the mainstream. In his first book, Reed shares his personal explorations with fashion and gender, examines historical antecedents of fluidity, questions old power structures, and urges people to find their authentic selves in fashion.

With stunning photography, resplendent fashion, and a behind-the-scenes look into Reed's design process, Fluid takes readers beyond the idea of clothes as mere garments, positing 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, Reed affirms that fluidity is the future of fashion.
