ABOUT THE DESIGNER
Suburban Deviant was founded in 2021 by Canadian artist Danny Welsh after completing their Master of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Art, Media, and Design from OCAD University in 2020.
As a child, I found myself transforming my clothing and exteriority as a way of affirming myself and actualizing ideas. Embracing a do-it-yourself mentality, I creatively customized my clothing in experimental and exploratory ways. I self-employed my methods of actualization and implemented them as catalysts for creative customization. These self-employed methods have stayed with me throughout my life. I was the child who would draw on their bedroom walls. This is me now.

ANTAGONIST
FASHN DISRPTR Award Recipient
Collection 08: ANTAGONIST: a subversive adaptation on the villainized deviants of pop culture and beyond; a reputation often attributed to Suburban Deviants and non-normative people.
This collection represents a subversive adaptation of the villainized deviants of pop culture and beyond. By interrogating the archetypal narrative often imposed upon suburban deviants and those who exist outside normative boundaries, the collection recontextualizes these figures, in what will be Suburban Deviant’s first ever runway debut! It invites deeper reflection on the complexities of identity, rebellion, and the often misunderstood facets of deviance. By unveiling the intricate layers behind the antagonist's identity, Suburban Deviant’s collection ANTAGONIST explores themes of marginalization, resistance, and the subversion of cultural norms. Suburban Deviant redefines the antagonist, offering a poignant commentary on the broader implications of labeling and ostracism in contemporary society. ANTAGONIST stands as a powerful statement on the multifaceted nature of deviance and the importance of questioning societal narratives involving otherness.
