New York Fashion Week just ended…time to reflect.
Were women’s trends more exciting or men’s ?
While womens’ fashion is always full of new ideas that might become a trend, I thought the coolest trend was in the menswear -The bare feet, no socks trend with noticeably shorter pants. As my friend labeled it the Metrosexual Amish look.
I feel he has all the rights to label this trend since he was one of the pioneers who originated this trend by being very tall & living in a one of the California’s Surf towns ( so all ready-to-wear pants are short on him and he hates socks ) . So even though he has to wear suit to work everyday he courageously omits his socks. Coworkers call his style Amish , I call it metrosexual, he calls it Amish Metrosexual. I feel it perfectly reflects the essence of trend!
The apparent enthusiasm with which men embraced this trend makes me think of women during the roaring 20es, when they could wear short skirts and show their legs.
Does this trend brings the same sense of Liberation for men ?
