About orin dewar annand
In the world of Avant-Garde Fashion, Orin Dewar Annand emerges as a visionary designer reimagining sustainability.
At the intersection of performance art and cutting-edge fashion, Orin stands out within a new generation of designers committed to transforming the industry from the inside out. Seamlessly blending conceptual narratives with sustainable craftsmanship, Orin elevates upcycling and deconstruction into a form of art that challenges convention while addressing the pressing environmental concerns of our time.
Rooted in innovation, Orin's collections are bold explorations of societal and environmental issues. Whether it’s through deconstruction/reconstruction techniques on vintage garments at ReJean Denim or crafting hauntingly beautiful pieces that evoke climate change and natural decay in the sold-out ODA showcase, every design is meticulously crafted to tell a story. The ODA event, a fusion of theatrics, fashion, and audiovisual art, was a powerful statement on sustainability and the human impact on the planet. This daring narrative was brought to life by a diverse team of collaborators, from stylists to performers, all under Orin’s visionary direction.
Collaborations with ReMode Glasgow, Fashion Revolution Scotland, and features in Sustainable Fashion Scotland magazine further solidify Orin as one to watch in ethical fashion. Their work with Dreaming Eli during London Fashion Week 2023— with garments later appearing at Milan Fashion Week and in British Vogue— demonstrates an ability to push boundaries while maintaining a deep respect for traditional craftsmanship.
Through each collection, Orin beckons wearers to step into a world where fashion is more than just garments—it's an immersive narrative woven from recycled and organic textiles, bold concepts, and a relentless commitment to sustainability. Each piece is not merely worn but lived in, inviting the individual to embrace a deeper connection with the clothing they adorn. This is fashion as an evolving dialogue, a form of resistance, and a powerful reflection of the changing world.
In a landscape where sustainability is often an afterthought, Orin places it at the very core of their designs— challenging the industry, and the wearer, to rethink fashion's role in shaping the future.
