Land of the Free

Max

Shirt Weekday

Skirt Zara

Shoes Max Mara

Vintage bag

Max is a German student. He was photographed close to the Brandenburg Gate. In his bright colored boat-neck tee and his elegant skirt, he unmistakably measures up to the standards of a New Male.

If one is to judge from this guy's getup and his well trimmed eyebrows, one could conclude that the wall dividing male and female fashions is finally falling down, just as the infamous wall which divided Berlin: his looks would have been unthinkable when the ill-famed wall was first erected in 1961.

In November 2009 a "Festival of Freedom" took place close to where this pic was taken, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

May we celebrate Male Fashion Freedom as well!

Mode Freiheit für alle!

Fabulous!! Hi Stana, May this be the start of a new wave of new menswear, it's time to let the feminine men take the stage in this world and have true Equality in Fashions with NO gender in clothing. This youg man looks fabulous and shows that men can wear feminine clothing and look great.

Nice look, hate the shoes but I suppose they anchor this young man to masculinity.

I could really go for an outfit like that. I would get a different pair of shoes. Max is an awesome young man and brave to further men's right to dress as he desires.

Footloose and Fashion-Free!

We are living exiting times in many senses: technologies allow us to stay in touch with people from around the word and humanity even starts reaching for distant planets.

When it comes to gender, we have gone a long way into accepting our ample, rich sexual diversity that goes way beyond the traditional gender binary: after many centuries of stereotypes, people finally start presenting themselves as bi-gender, non-binary, genderless, genderfluid.

Even cis-gender people, i.e. those falling into the conventional ”male” and “female” categories, are acting, even unconsciously, in ways far removed from traditional patterns: Ladies are becoming more assertive, while gentlemen are allowed to show their emotions and display their “feminine” side.

All this slow but steady modifications in our conduct, which I consider to be extremely healthy and honest, cannot help but being expressed in the way we dress.

Ladies wear pants and “power suits”, while the creativity, the flair, the colors, the design, which used to be reserved for the girls only, are finally reaching the menswear department. Males don’t have to settle for the same old boring, gray, stuff.

Skirts, heels, jewelry and flower-patterns in bright colors for men are not uncommon any more.

My blog, promotes designers and creators of non-conforming fashions.

WARNING: It’s not a blog about "cross-dressing". That's a word that hopefully will one day vanish from our vocabulary as everyone dresses the way they feel suit and that's that!
