TATRAS AND RIOT HILL FW 2020

Exclusive interview with Jordan Fresher on his first show for Tatras and Riot Hill Fall

Brotherhood, bold music and an insurgent mood submerged us into the alternative underground world. This is the world that the Tatras and Riot Hill Fall/Winter 2020 collaboration brought to Paris Fashion Week.

The collection described as an “amalgamation of subversive culture” by the designers; mostly included large volumes, monochromatic looks in dark tones and utilitarian elements. Pockets; zippers; hiking and military boots where highly present through all the looks. Tattooed models walking with violent steps played a key role in interpreting the spirit of the collection.

This collaboration was Jordan Fresher’s first show for Riot Hill, which was an impressive success for the 21-year old Australian designer. The event was attended by important influencers and celebrities such as Bela Hadid.

Jordan shared with Irk Magazine some statements about the collection:

In particular what was your inspiration for this first Tatras and Riot Hill collection?

I don’t have a direct answer to this as I draw up inspiration from my daily life. Furthermore, this Tatras and Riot Hill collection is what I have done from the very start (the beginnings of Riot Hill) at a higher level. I am trying to create a sort of universe with Riot Hill.

Generally, who is the Riot Hill person?

I like to think that Riot Hill is that man who runs around with people that he knows he shouldn’t. However, he does it anyway because he knows it’s like a brotherhood. Somebody who has brotherhood in their veins.

The Tatras and Riot Hill Fall/Winter 2020 collaboration proved to be a powerful debut for young designer Jordan Fresher at Paris Fashion Week. Through dark, utilitarian aesthetics and a spirit of rebellion, the collection successfully embodied an underground brotherhood, analogous to establishing Riot Hill as a bold, subversive force in contemporary fashion.
