MEN's FASHION WITH FEMININE TOUCHES..


Men's clothing are becoming more feminine and pushing the boundaries of what men would normally wear. All the images below display some familiarity to women's clothing and are sourced from Topman online. This is something I looked in to see how much men's clothing were being inspired by feminine styling as the book is about a boy who likes dressing up in women's clothing.


The patterning on the t shirt above is definitely a design to which a few years ago would have been considered as women's clothing. However, it is clear that society of today are more open to how men dress. When walking along the high street, shop fronts and the general public are very  much in love with these patterned t shirts as they are everywhere. Clothes too are getting much tighter, as this is a fitted t- shirt, which would hug the arms and the waist.



Pokadots are genuinely a pattern to which you would really only see women wearing, however, for Spring/Summer 2012, Topshop brought out this Pokadot Blazer jacket. I personally have not yet seen this item being worn by the public, but I'm sure it does sell.


A couple of years ago, ant man who would be seen wearing skinny jeans would have been called a girl by their mates, or been laughed at been referred to as 'gay.' However, the main styling of jeans worn by men today are these skinny jeans, which typically women only used to wear.

 Low V necks are becoming more popular, I still think its a style which not everyone can pull off as no one likes to see a hairy chest. Most of the men who I have seen wearing this style are have been ones look after their appearance and groom well. Pink is a colour which is seen to be very feminine, but is now a colour to which most men aged 16-25 would wear.



Flowers are definitely something which are usually aimed towards women. But as you can see they are more and more being used for men. 


It is clear that the society of today are being more open minded about what they wear than they used to be. It could be that men liked this feminine styling but wanted to conform to the 'norm' and went along with what everyone else was wearing, and now more and more shops are bringing out these feminine clothing, the more people are starting to wear them.
