Karl Leuterio

I've been following this Philippine designer and blogger since I first started with my own blog.

I always take pleasure in his designs for his own label, Paradigm Shift, as well as the beautiful footwear and accessories he creates for Gold Dot

Besides, his blog is always amusing, fun to read and informative.

But I must confess that I particularly enjoy his own looks, which can also be appreciated at Lookbook.

(His high-heel collection in particular is quite enviable).

You can also become a fan of his:

This is one of those rare occasions in which I have no problem in posting pics of a female model.

Not only will you consent that the styling is ambiguous enough for some adventuresome guy to wear (large earrings included), but also that she looks quite androgynous herself.

Most of us could identify with her at any time.

The title refers to the Maid of Orleans (Joan of Arc), who's not only the hero of a fascinating episode of French history, but also of an opera by Chaikovsky.

The Russian pronunciation goes something like "Or-leh-ans-ka-ya Deh-va", which has been changed here for "Di-va"... hence the pun.

I find young Joan, the fierce female-warrior, an extremely appealing character: the exact opposite of the traditional "lady in distress", and therefore an early example of a "gender role reversal".

In fact, I'd love to be rescued by her!

Before You Kill Us All

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!
