Joris Janssen

My name is Joris Janssen and I’m a fashion designer based in Amsterdam currently studying at the Gerrit Rietveld academie.

My designs focus on Queer identity, sexuality and gender. By looking at Gendering and stereotypes in Fashion and modern pop culture I want to create pieces that defy everything that we know. Through working with a collective called the patchworkfamily I get to dress Queer performers who perform in sexclubs and other forms of nightlife. With my designs I want to create an ultimate queer limitless utopia in which gender and sexuality don’t play any role.
