A Match Made in Heaven

Harry Styles X Harris Reed

Throughout Harry’s two solo tours he’s worked with an array of different designer brands, from Gucci to YSL to Alexander McQueen, to create his iconic stage looks. But during his 2018 Amsterdam show Harry stepped out in a look that wasn’t created by one of the top designers fans were accustomed to. And it remained a mystery for the entire show. Either way fans were in love with the black flared pants with the white cutouts and white ruffled top with the black vest. I ended up nicknaming it the pirate look.

After the show fans found out that Harry’s Amsterdam look was created by Harris Reed, a 21-year-old student at Central Saint Martins. Harris had just recently moved from Los Angeles to London to continue college and explore this new city. What he wasn’t expecting was to collaborate with the Harry Styles on an outfit for his solo tour.

After the show Harris opened up about how it was working with Harry on his particular look; “The whole experience was extremely collaborative. Both were very involved from the beginning in not only seeing the sketches and approving all the fabrics, but then Harry Styles really got to know me and who I was through the times we spent together. Harry could not have been a more lovely or supportive client throughout this entire process. He never held back if he loved something,” (Miss Vogue article).

Harry clearly loved Harris’ designs and working alongside him so much that he asked him to create three other looks for his tour. And his designs became extremely popular among the fans, every time Harry came out in familiar frills and ruffles everyone knew it was a Harris Reed original.
