P R O F I L E

Kyle Denman is a fashion designer and artist based in Los Angeles, California. Before entering the creative space, Denman studied political science. Having always loved art as a child, he craved creative expression and freedom. In 2016, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue fashion design and has grown a client list to include names like Beyonce and Georgina Pazcoguin. He has received numerous accolades for his work, including being recognized as the 2021 International Fashion Designer of the Year and being named on the inaugural Forbes 30 Under 30 Los Angeles list.

For years, Denman has taught design and art to youth from underserved communities of color. Many of the young people who he has taught are systems-impacted and have experienced trauma from trafficking, housing insecurity, and gang violence. Through the lenses of art and design, Denman teaches social-emotional skills and the importance of vulnerability and creative expression. Denman also currently serves as the Executive Director of the social impact arts organization, Arts Bridging the Gap.

Denman's mission is to ignite a culture of change through creativity and curiosity. Hoping to use his own platform and privilege to create social change, share cultural narratives, and expand the creative economy, he considers fashion to be an all-encompassing art—movement, design, and architecture juxtaposed in socio-political, cultural, and historical contexts. As an artist, Denman is known for his avant-garde style, unique architectural silhouettes, and the emotional narratives woven into his creations.
