It is no longer considered scandalous when women dress like men. On the flipside the boundaries are a tighter; the results should not appear strained. The men’s collection “The boy was brightly decorated” merges and transmutes the ostentatios worlds of hiphop and haute couture. The silhouette is defined by hiphop styling with its square, oversized tops and wide, low-slung pants. Haute couture supplies the materials and techniques, such as gold silk, smocked velve and textures such as quilted and plisseed fabrics. All this contrasts with washed denim. The reinterpretation results in a harmonious synthesis of streetwear and haute couture, rebellion and elegance, grace and aggression. Men and women participate in the female and male aspect, respectively. Fashion changes society.
