In an era when this rule seems to be broken, more and more people are beginning to appeal for and achieve gender equality. There is no doubt that the fashion world is also trying to be the leader of this transformation. For example, in the fall of 2018, men's designers showed more skirts designed for men on this year's show.

Typical examples are Astrid Andersen's culottes, Alex Mullins's shiny skirts, and Bobby Abley's bounced sexy short skirts during London Men's Week 2018.

In addition, Undercover on the Florence show floor showed a large number of pleated skirts. At the opening show of the designer Jun Takahashi, five kinds of skirts, from the simple monochrome to the grid from head to toe, were displayed. At the same time, at the end of the show, the climax of the entire show was designed: a group of naked men in white dresses.

Although this year's men's wear week is full of designs for skirts, in the fashion industry's inherent understanding, "wearing skirts for men" has long been not an uncommon task. As early as the early 1990s, Kurt Cobain, the lead singer of the American rock band Nirvana, once appeared on the cover of a magazine wearing a Baby Doll's floral dress, which had a great impact on the society that was the only gay men to wear skirts at that time. Afterwards, Kurt Cobain once said in the magazine “Melody Maker”: “Wearing a skirt is just a way to make me feel comfortable. I have not done anything destructive to this society.”

In contrast, designers who dress exclusively for men seem to have a lot of embarrassment. Astrid Andersen, who has always preferred designing dresses for men, used Chinese cheongsam and hockey shirts for mashups at Milan Fashion Week 2016, and was praised as having "both form and effect."

Also in 2016 Milan Fashion Week, Japanese designer Watanabe Yasumi designed a casual pastoral denim skirt dominated by stitching elements, which is also very eye-catching. In fact, although Japanese society has always attached great importance to social order and differences in the status of men and women, it is particularly bold in crossing the sex boundaries of clothing.

Compared with the past, whether in terms of quantity or style, 2018 Men's Weekend skirts have reached a new height, which may also be seen as gender-free design, in recent years is gradually becoming a fashion field to break Tradition reflects a new trend in personality.

However, we cannot expect that many people will accept or even try this style, but we must admit that these cutting-edge designers have indeed become a group of people in this era of pursuing gender equality and eager to break the traditional gender paralysis. Powerful speaker.
