Carmex 964 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 No. Suits are classic and timeless. Obviously men can stop outside of the box and could start wearing more high fashion pieces. I mean, Troye Sivan's outfit for the BBMAs was very unique and it worked for him. More men just need to start embracing fashion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fashion can be and often is a part of performance and there's a word for that: Costume. Costumes are seperate from real fashion that everyday people wear.

Luc 4,772 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Dresses have been very popular among men the past year or so you see Justin wearing dresses all the time idgi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradley 55,391 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 No. Men are supposed to look masculine I don't care if they look boring, at least they look good in suits. Men in dresses are weird. I find Jared more diverse in terms of his outfits, they're mostly suits but there are minor variations that make him look interesting. Not a red carpet outfit but I like the combination.

Red carpet attire has a bigger effect on what we all wear then I think you realize. It's just absurdly expensive formal wear from the same artists who create our rtw fashion.

That's really backwards thinking... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus most women pair their suits with other hyper feminized fashion pieces like heels, handbags, bold makeup, etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just make it look like a shirt and add in pants underneath and it's masculine. Ok... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You speak as if there's some sexism in it. Sometimes things just work that way. We are socially constructed to judge beauty that way. What you support is the idea of gender equality. But from the perspective of beauty, do you seriously think men look attractive in dresses and odd outfits,? If yes, then good for you but the majority of people is not used to that kind of fashion.
