Androgyny.
‘Androgyny’- having the characteristics or
nature of both male and female
The World War I led to a reposition
of women in society, many of whom cut their hair short, flattened their chests
and adopted an androgynous ‘garcon’ silhouette. This was accented by the Coco
Chanel’s usage of wool jersey, that had previously been used only for men’s
undergarments, and reinforced by famous actresses, such as Marlene Dietrich,
who served as a great inspiration for this post.
We usually implement garments
typically designed for men into our outfits, while still pairing them with
"feminine" pieces, therefore "androgynous" is one of the
adjectives we would use to describe our sense of style. By dedicating an
entire post to this theme, we wanted to showcase the interesting twist male
garments can provide and encourage anybody intrigued to try it out.
