Masculinity and feminity

Hi guys!

April is the month of the suit. And it shows off. You see many editorials with women in suits.

It’s quite a hype this year. As well in magazines as on fashion partys as well on the catwalk. Coco Chanel and Giorgio Armani both started a collection women suits. Armani’s winter collection is therefore called : Garçonne. Most of all black and white collor designs. Masculine creations such as harlequin jackets, loose trousers, Pierrot collards and even braces were worn by female models! The feminine details are heads, ruffles, bracelets and clutches. The shoes were quite simple and flat.

Below some shots of Lina Zhang. She suits up in this cool and crisp editorial showcasing ‘Modern Tailoring’ for Vogue China. Shot by Lincoln Pilcher and fashion Editor: Morgan Pilcher .

 

What do you think? Cool and different style, you can make it look feminine with beautiful hair and makeup and elegant high heels. Or do you say no, because it’s doesn’t add anything to our status as woman.

I think it’s okay to wear a suit, but I prefer dresses. When I wear something manly I try to get it back in balance with something really feminine. Because I can’t feel a girl without anything feminine, I think it’s just a state of mind.

 

 

Next to masculinity there is feminity. And I found these greaaaat campaign pictures on Facebook, and I’m really sorry that I need to tell you that I didn’t find out what’s the designer of the dresses or any other information than that the photo’s were shot in Africa and it’s the A/W Africa 2013 collection. But when I find out you’ll definately hear.

What a little light can do, AMAZING! I was impressed by the white color lightening up in the sun. The dresses look so much more special. Nature and design clothes come together in simpelness and beauty. Harmony is the word that popped up immediately. I really love the silhouets and fabrics <3

See you around guys,

LOVE xox
