As the owner of MenStyleFashion, I am very aware of the agenda of the fashion world right now. Do men need to be portrayed as women? I am very mindful of the new terminology plastered on Tick Tok, Instagram and every social media regarding men. Met Gala ball took it to a whole new level. Why are men dressing in women's clothing?
These feminine trends are giving rise to more androgynous styling for men. We could call it "Girly menswear"
I don't see women dressed as men?
The Concept Of Beauty From A Man's Perspective
The fashion world is treading on dangerous ground when it comes to Men Style and fashion. Define the feminine side of men?
It is estimated that the market for men's personal care will reach somewhere in the region of $166 billion by 2022 – Allied Market Research.
There is a huge growth in men's grooming. According to NPD's iGen Beauty Consumer report, almost 40 per cent of people between the ages of 18-22 are showing an interest in beauty products listed as gender-neutral. And sales of skincare products aimed at men have increased by 7% since last year.
Will men really be running out today in New York buying high heels let alone a skirt?
Define The Gender Agenda Balance?
Today's youth, Generation Z, will be in charge of defining the future of masculinity. Today's young male personalities like Jaden Smith and Lil Uzi Vert, who often dress in skirts and feminine blouses are more open to gender and sexual fluidity, more so than the previous generation of millennials.
"They're now rethinking what masculinity means, what it means to be a guy?
Our Ladies Aren't Dressing Like Men
Jennifer Lopez. Bille Eilish, Kim Kardashian and Emily Blunt all looking and representing what we ladies are women. I live in Italy and see many men wearing wonderful creative outfits. Not bothered about the fashion trends but more expressing their sexuality as men. Not seen any man in Venice let alone the rest of Italy wearing high heels?
Why is the Met Gala Ball going out of the way to highlight men wanting to wear high heels? As marketing fashion for men for ten years. I assure you it's an insult to the man itself. He ain't interested in wearing high heels.
How do you feel right now reading this as a man? When do you see one of New York's best opportunities to celebrate men's fashion to showcase men in high heels? Showmen wearing women's clothing?
It's desperate times for luxury fashion houses. China ain't buying anything much in New York. Chinese can't even flu out of their own country. Their leader is putting a huge stop to luxury houses in China. So what do luxury fashion houses do? They put men in women's clothing.
For me, it's all about getting press and the shock factor. Nothing creative about it at all. I call this lazy fashion and marketing.
I have been to New York, I never saw men dressing like this?
Show Casing Tailoring For Men
What an opportunity missed. This is the platform to showcase men's tailoring at its best. Or in the case of Dolce & Gabbana what an amazing gold cape he wore. This is all about a wonderful message of discrimination. The cape shielding his history of bullying in the past.
The Skirt
Now in Holland, a guy was wearing a skirt. I said hey men can pull it off. he turned around to me and said I am not a man. I certainly could see by the hair on his legs, face and his balls he was born a man. The Roman's in Italy wore skirts. He is not like this guy below trending anything new.
The Psychological Impact Of This Ideology
The "traditional masculinity ideology" has been very detrimental to the health, both mental and physical of men, according to the American Psychological Association. They would argue that "Men who adhere to traditionally masculine cultural norms, such as risk-taking, violence, dominance, the primacy of work, need for emotional control, desire to win, and pursuit of social status, tend to be more likely to experience psychological problems such as depression, stress, body image problems, substance abuse, and poor social functioning".
We are ready for a change?
How Do Men Re-interpret Themselves?
Will this outfit make you less aggressive? Will, it tampers the desire to provide for your partner as the peacock of his home? Are you going to get less depressed as a man seeing this outfit?
Lewis Hamilton In Lace
Lewis Hamilton added lace to his suit. Trying to play the game but clearly unsure to come across as wearing women attire. Have a look at his past looks for the gala ball. To highlight my point. Why is Lewis not wearing high heels?
Justin Biber & Shawn Mendes
These two seem the very few men who clearly understand their power as men. Why are they not wearing high heels?
When we get sent content for men's fashion. We rarely get sent men in dresses let alone high heels. Not even us women are wearing them thanks to lockdown.
