With gender fluidity dominating the runways, our nation’s rising models Alicia Amin and Shikin Gomez talk about gender fluidity in fashion, whilst showing us how to rock Coach 1941’s androgynous Pre-Fall 2017 collection.
In today’s fashion world, the word ‘gender fluidity’ has become a new catch phrase, with designers making strenuous effort to deconstruct gender boundaries, letting masculinity seep into womenswear and femininity into men’s. The atypical combination of masculine and feminine characteristics makes for a stunning type of beauty, reinventing perceptions of what is ideal in the fashion world.
