“Welcome to the Un-United Kingdom,” a dystopian vision set in the year 3025, where the planet has been ravaged by relentless technological progression and moral decay. The air is thick with chaos, the climate disregarded, and survival ruled by lawless gangs and underground cultures fighting to reclaim what was lost. Raynor’s latest collection at London Fashion Week wasn’t just about fashion—it was about storytelling, world-building, and making people think.











Hi-Fi, the non-profit platform that champions emerging designers, powered the collection, with support from Hidden Agency and AKT. For Raynor, fashion is more than just clothes—it’s art, escapism, and a reflection of the world we live in. “Design is an indispensable art form that allows us to escape and/or reflect our times and culture,” he says. “I hope my storytelling, though wild and theatrical, has the power to incite genuine reflection from my audience.”
The show opened with something unexpected—”The Personification of the Internet,” a dress built entirely from cabling and materials used at Equinix data centers. It took over 640 hours to construct, a physical embodiment of the unseen digital networks shaping our lives. It was a statement piece in the truest sense, forcing the audience to confront the weight of our hyperconnected reality.
Raynor’s ability to combine craftsmanship, narrative, and concept has already earned him major industry recognition. Stavros Karelis, founder of MACHINE-A, sees something rare in him, comparing his sharp creative vision to designers like Kiko Kostadinov and Grace Wales Bonner. “It’s very rare to see someone this young have such a clear vision of what they want their brand to be,” Karelis says. “His brand is the perfect balance between creativity, design focus, craftsmanship, and commercial strength.”
