He's No Lady

Fashion Canada Magazine

February 2012 Issue

Model

Andrej Pejic

Stylist George Antonopoulos

Photographer Moo King

Some of my followers have suggested that I should stop posting Andrej's editorials, as he is no longer a male model, but, given the course his career has been taking recently, rather a full-fledged female.

I dissent, though.

As long as he will remain biologically a man (and I really hope he will for a long time), I'll consider "Miss" Pejic to be a male.

A New Male, actually, albeit a quite extreme one.

For now, let me leave those arguments behind, and focus on the glorious images published by this Canadian mag.

I think all transvestites/transgenders/transsexuals really love all this. (Don't have a problem with that.) But be honest, this has nothing to do with being a "new male". It's about men pretending or wanting to be (or look like) women. I loved this site a lot, but not anymore.

My dear friend: I should admit that my recent posts have been a bit "over the top". On the other hand, that may just be indicating a trend of the industry. Not that a New Male should be a cross-dresser, buy rather that the world of fashion is finally accepting those (so-far) neglected groups you've mentioned.

Anyways... I personally think that these extreme pushes of the envelope will end up being a healthy thing. If consumers at large accept, or at least tolerate, these radical styles (trans-styles, if you wish), they will be more inclined to assume less outrageous fashions for men, i.e., skirts, heels or dresses in a less "feminine" context.

Anyways, thanks for the comment!

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!

I'm pretty sure that all those creators benefit from the costless publicity and world-wide promotion they obtain from bloggers around the globe. As a matter of fact, many of them have actually recognized our work.

I make my best effort to always include all the due credits and, whenever possible, to link them to the source where the images were originally published.
