Jordan Gogos (born 28 September 1994) is an Australian artist and fashion designer for Iordanes Spyridon Gogos.[2] Gogos founded the label in 2019 with a focus on recycled and repurposed textiles and fabrics. [3] The label has presented at Australian Fashion Week since 2021.

Career

[edit]

Gogos founded the fashion label Iordanes Spyridon Gogos in 2019 after working in New York for his furniture brand GOGOS and studying at Parsons School of Design.[4][5] The label is experimental, non-gendered and innovative in its approaches to sustainability through practice-led design research methodologies, and known for its 'wearables' which repurpose existing textiles and materials. [6]

The label debuted at the 2021 Australian Fashion Week with over 25 different artists and collaborators to widespread acclaim.[7][8][9] Since his debut, he has presented at the fashion week every year and was awarded Emerging Designer of the Year by the Australian Fashion Council. [10][11]

In 2022, GQ Australia presented Gogos with the Creative Force Award at the Men of the Year awards for his designs.[12] His first furniture based solo exhibition Absurd Curiosities was hosted by Sally Dan-Cuthbert the same year.[13] His 2022 fashion show was held at the Powerhouse Museum and was the subject of three-part short film Powerhouse x Gogos.[14][15]

In 2023, Gogos presented at the annual Australian Fashion Laureate awards, and exhibited textile art at Sydney Contemporary and collectible-design gallery Sally Dan-Cuthbert.[16] In the same year, Iordanes Spyridon Gogos collaborated with Akira Isogawa on the label's first Resort collection at Australian Fashion Week.[17]

In 2024, Gogos launched his collaboration with Designer Rugs at his Resort runway Australian Fashion Week Show, 'The Woven Trojan Horse'. [18][19] The show included the return of Elaine George to the runway.[20]

That same year, Gogos was the subject of Archibald Prize portrait finalist 'Fluffy (Jordan Gogos)' by Whitney Duan.[21] Shortly after, Gogos gave a presentation about sustainability and value at TEDx Sydney Youth conference titled "The art of the thingmabob".[22]. Gogos was guest designer at Hautes Grecians, the sixth edition of Greece's haute couture event, and presented a new collection of Greek-inspired wearables.[23][24]

That same year, Iordanes Spyridon Gogos partnered with Glenfiddich for Melbourne Art Fair on a pop up bar.[25] Gogos was an advocate for the continuation of Australian Fashion Week after IMG withdrew their support and was involved in the Australian Fashion Council's involvement in the event in 2025.[26]

His works appear in the National Gallery of Australia, Sydney's Powerhouse Museum and the Gallery of South Australia.[27][28][29] He is a contributing writer to Vogue Australia and Harpers Bazaar.[30] He is currently represented by N.Smith Gallery in Sydney. [31]
