The rolled up trousers

Walking through the hallways of the school suddenly thinking whether the guys of your school went to a growth spurt... But no, the rolled up trousers is more than back and not only the guys at schools are wearing it. Celebrities, artists, men in suits, teenage boys are falling victim to this latest trend in Men's Fashion. Personally I find it absurd, a less-than-flattering look. While the rolling up of your pants was already popular in London in 2009, we still need to get used to this bizarre trend. Do we think it is manly enough?

Many shoe stores already have adapted their fall collection to this trend.

The 'boat-shoes' and the laces are back on the shelves!

But IF rolling up your pants, you've got to do it the right way. Roll the pants just above your ankle (don't make the rolled part of the pants too 'big'!!). Make sure that you only roll up your pants whenever wearing a nice pair of jeans or a skinny. Wear a shirt or blouse above it, and stop the ends in your pants, some nice lace shoes underneath it and you guys can hit the streets! However mind your socks, two different socks, or socks with Looney Tunes prints are not what you call very charming ...

"Grr" What about the animal prints?

The shops are bulking with animal printed clothes, shoes, bags, umbrellas and so on. Every object you possibly can dream about is available in the one of the many animal prints. Zebra, leopard, panther, tiger, snake, crocodile ... the stores continue to pass animal prints. And the celebs continue wearing animal prints.

The shocking thin body of Karlie Kloss

Last week the Italian Vogue revealed the photos of the (almost) nude shoot with the nineteen year-old american Karlie Kloss. Her super musculed body led to a lot of contravery. Vogue has decided to remove the most extreme pictures from their website. The visitors wondered wheter the body of Kloss was both thin and muscular, or photoshop might have addapted those effects. Though the Vogue removed the most extreme pictures, I found the complete shoot: 

The aformentioned photo

The video below, however, shows clearly that the Karlie's muscles are 100% natural.
Do you think she's suffering from anorexia or is she just having a healthy lifestyle?

 

Crossing the border line

The fashion world is embracing the transsexuals like they did in the 60s and 70s. The difference now is that mystery has been replaced with empowerment, even pride. Consider a few happenings:

The Japanese Vogue Hommes revealed its new male model; Jo Calderone,
who was, in actually, Lady Gaga. 

The public is much more aware of the possibilities of transgender people existing and taking part as leaders in the social and cultural life. "They are always going to be people who don't fit into boxes," said Victoria Kolakowski, who was elected a superior court judge in Alamenda Country, California. 

"What we consider to be normal is evolving and changing.
That frightens many people, but it's the nature of our times."

Moonlighting fashionistas dabbling in cross-dressing have surely helped advance the transsexual image, but the real strides in 2010 were made by the actual transsexuals and those who define themselves on a spectrum of gender rather more than simply male or female. The clearest example of this was the arrival of the transsexual model Lea T.

Fashion trends like the 'boyfriend jeans' and the 'male suits' are signs of the 'male revolution' on women. Will at the end, all women dress up like men? What will happen to the femininity? And men? Will they appear in sexy lingerie, attractive red lips with smokey eyes? Maybe we don't even sense a change in society because all the above mentioned is going to become normal..
