Silver inflatable armour gilet
The HARRI Silver Inflatable Armour Gilet is the MuseumWear collection's most distinct piece. The inflatable panels sit at the front and back of the shoulders, expanding into segmented forms that read as body armour: each panel a separate volume, the whole structure sitting over the torso like a second skin made rigid by inflation. In silver natural latex the surface catches light across every inflated panel simultaneously. Worn open against the skin, the gilet changes the scale of whoever is inside it. From the studio whose LFW SS26 MuseumWear collection at the Barbican built the case that fashion can operate as sculpture. Part of HARRI's Ready-to-Wear collection, handmade in London.
