This balance between playfulness and purpose is where Norris thrives, and it’s a space she should continue to explore. What Norris has found here in terms of accessibility is quite remarkable that it looks cool as a design signature is merely a positive side-effect. They were also applied on other pieces as straightforward closures. The tees have a strip of magnets on each side seam, which allows you to open or drape them as you wish (Norris transformed one from extra long tee to goddess gown by way of demonstration). More out-there are a hoodie dress (the skirt is composed of double rib knit, with a traditional sweatshirt waistband elongated to the floor) a bodycon dress in Outlier “overkill” mesh and extra long T-shirts. Offered in solid and a trompe l’oeil that evokes a jacket-over-dress louche silhouette, it is unlined and surprisingly light. In the tailoring space, the season’s hero is an ankle length blazer cut in injected linen, an Outlier signature. Where all of this comes into play is in a lineup for spring that reimagines wardrobe staples with the technical Outlier treatment and the subversive Norris touch. A concept she repeats that immediately takes prominence is “quotidian glamour.” By mixing loose concepts like “long blazer” and “skin” with cultural references like a tear out that reads “cheap chic homo,” she found her foundation. Norris is a scrapbooker: she tends to write down words as they come to her rather than draw or sketch. The answer is more straightforward, but just as sensible. But the exercise, healthy as it sounds, doesn't enlighten us on the tangible tools she built her collection on. This season, rather than projecting ideas for a collection into the future, she took it day by day, operating as a designer without the often self-imposed mania that comes with the job. Ideas 4: “New Math” sees her blur this line further.Ī starting point for her this season was Bernard Rudofsky’s 1947 essay “Are Clothes Modern?” and a twist on the title of his 1964 book “Architecture Without Architects.” “I’ve been trying to think about what fashion design is without fashion designers, or without the rules made up for us by us,” Norris says. Since establishing her Ideas series four season ago, Norris has expanded Outlier’s lexicon to subtly encompass her own intrinsically queer verbiage.
