Leo Hill-Daniel is a graduate fashion designer whose multidisciplinary practice merges avant-garde fashion, sculpture, and digital art into clothing. Working to merge craftsmanship and conceptual design, he explores the relationship between the natural world, anatomy, and imaginary worlds, producing garments that blur the boundaries between fashion, sculpture and wearable art. His graduate collection investigates the imagined synthesis of humans and birds, translating skeletal structures, movement, and adaptation into dramatic silhouettes. Combining laser cutting, 3D printing, hand dyeing, and traditional garment construction, he developed a series of sculptural looks inspired by pigeon plumage, balancing structured forms with organic drapery. The collection reflects an ongoing fascination with biology, engineering, and the emotional power of transformation through dress. Alongside fashion, Leo maintains a broad creative practice spanning digital illustration, sculpture, woodworking and ceramics. These disciplines continually inform his design process, allowing him to experiment with materiality, structure, and storytelling beyond the runway. His ambition is to expand fashion into immersive environments where garments exist alongside sound, light, and sculptural interventions. In 2026, Leo was selected as one of three winners of the British Fashion Council x Barbour competition, presenting his work to an industry judging panel, his project consisting of a transforming garment, a Barbour inspired jacket that transforms into a picnic blanket, via a complex modular hardware set up, he embraced the utility found in Barbour's heritage and worked with traditional wax fabrics, and transforming pockets and sleeves into bags and pillows His work combines technical precision with expressive experimentation, embracing both commercial craftsmanship and conceptual exploration. Industry experience has strengthened both his technical and creative approach. He completed a design internship with Eudon Choi, contributing to luxury womenswear development across pattern cutting, garment construction, sampling, and collection preparation. He has also collaborated on live industry projects, directed independent runway presentations, and continues to develop a made-to-order bespoke denim practice, creating custom garments tailored to individual clients and creative collaborations. Driven by curiosity and an instinct for making, Leo sees fashion as a medium capable of extending far beyond the body. Through sculptural silhouettes, innovative fabrication techniques, and multidisciplinary experimentation, he aims to create work that invites audiences into imagined worlds, challenging conventional ideas of clothing while celebrating the transformative possibilities of design, performance, and artistic expression.
