James Garland, native New Yorker and Hood by Air alum, is creating must-have ready-to-wear for exuberant personalities.
, Garland’s first foray into men’s and women’s ready-to-wear is a fully realized lifestyle concept with garments for every occasion. “I want this to be functional. I want it to be practical. I want these clothes to work in people’s lives,” he says. Model Anok Yai, Garland’s longtime friend and muse, models his womenswear. A sexy, sliced on the bias dress shows the right amount of curve and skin, and a teal snakeskin dress is inspired by the luxury of Tom Ford’s Gucci days.
The collection’s star is a durag dress in rich purple. “It was the first piece I designed,” he explains. “I’m obsessed with John Galliano, and I love the idea of how all of his dresses were cut on the bias. Growing up, I always wore a durag, and my mother would always say, you can’t wear those certain places. I kind of wanted to make a dress that was in the language of silky, bias, body-con, but had the durag as its integral piece. This is a durag dress for the red carpet.
With his collection arriving in stores today—and I would absolutely bet on the red carpet soon—he’s setting up a new generation to see themselves in fashion as style icons. And who knows? Maybe an aspiring young designer will stumble uponPhoto: Courtesy of J6
