Fabulous origami creations for London Fashion Week

Darryl creates paper art using different techniques including origami and kirigami

A designer's origami dresses were showcased at London Fashion Week on Saturday.

The artist, Darryl Bedford, forms his clever creations using a combination of techniques.

This includes the Japanese arts of origami, where paper is folded to make different objects and designs, and kirigami, a method of cutting and folding paper to create three-dimensional shapes.

Darryl Bedford is dyslexic, which means he's neurodivergent.

He says his dyslexia is his strength when creating his origami and kirigami paper art.

Neurodiversity is a word used to describe the different thinking styles and ways in which our brain works, which is not just about how we think but also how we communicate and interact with the world around us.

Darryl worked with fashion designer and architect Gareth Volka to transform his some of his art into five dresses which will appear on the runway at London Fashion Week.

"Being invited (to London Fashion Week) to actually be a neurodivergent designer, I feel really pleased about that," he said.

"I am able to see things in such a completely different way, and I feel as though that's my superpower."

The artist, who also teaches deaf children, first started his origami and kirigami journey after a difficult time in his life.

"When I first started my art form I used it as a form of therapy," he said.

His designs have been picked up by the Bullock Inclusion, which is a charity helping to create events and campaigns promoting more inclusion for people living with disabilities.

Darryl says he enjoys making creations that can be experienced through touch, and described his wearable designs as both rigid and flexible.

He hopes to continue displaying his designs on the runway in the future.

"I just love performance. I love the runway," he said.

"I definitely haven't finished yet. I've only just started to tell the truth."
