...the Men’s fashion shows in Paris and Milan began featuring dark-rimmed male models with pale makeup walking in glittering gold jeans and lace shorts, head-to-toe in electric pink with strings of pearls and wedges.

The Grand Marshall at a Gay Pride parade. I don't think this will play in Peoria.
I wouldn’t allow anybody to put that crap on my corpse.
No REAL men will wear that stuff.
Ick!
susie
That is so gay.
I am Dieter and this is Shprockets.
Only a flaming faggot ... and / or Obamanation voter would wear this butt pirate garb
“Sex and the City” (the movie) has, to date, grossed
$ 346,000,000 world-wide. A sequel is already in the works. There is a market for feminized men.
Looks as if the fashion industry is even more fruitful that usual this year. Well, the Lord told Adam to be fruitful and multiply. I guess 1-for-2 ain’t bad.
Alexander McQueen ... or is it McQueer ... hard to tell ...
The fashion weirdos try this every several years. It never works.
That bottom picture is just gross. That is homosexual fashion for sure. I don’t know a woman that would want her man wearing that!
In the meantime, we American males will cling to outdated notions of masculinity in action and accoutrement, and we'll be the ones smiling and shaking our heads.
Meanwhile, these "designers" will be back making costumes for the high school production of "Wizard of Oz."
wedgies?
Dorks.
No real man would wear this crap. I could understand a homo wanting to look like this.
I bet the ladies would have nothing to do with any male dressed like these ..um...people.
The look on the face of the guy in the middle cracks me up. He looks like he’s just given up. “Yeah, I know. It’s stupid, but you won’t believe what they are paying me to wear it for 4 minutes.”
“Smear the queer”, is that what the game is called?
This stuff will never be worn off the runway - it’s just created to get the designer a headline. ;)
I think they wasted their time and money on this. Surely no straight man would wear these outfits. I don’t even think a majority of gay men would wear these clothes. I shouldn’t have clicked on the link. One man was wearing pearls ... yuck!
What’s funny about the pearls guy is that without the accessories and sandals, that is probably the most masculine look (the cut of the suit, plain white shirt). It was like they had to fem it down so they added pearls and a murse.
Those sandals are horrible, even for a woman. They look either orthopedic or like his feet are bandaged.
I remember in the early ‘70s when the fashion fascists tried to put men into hot pants. Same thing.
I’ll stick with the Preppy look.
I guess these aren’t your everyday lumberjacks.
Glad to see Brylcreem is makeing a comeback though. I still have half a tube waaaaaaaaay in the back of the medicine cabinet.
No, no, no and hell no.
I wonder if this is a subconscious rebellion on the part of the fashionistas against Islam? The outfits are still grotesque, but they make more sense, at least to me, if that, or something like it, is what’s going on.
Yep, they just added a few “special” feminine touches to that one. I’m not quite sure why that outfit bothered me the most ... maybe because they ruined something that could have looked decent.
LOL at what the guy in the middle picture is thinking. I believe you’re right.
They're this kind of lumberjack:
I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay
I sleep all night and I work all day
He's a lumberjack and he's okay
He sleeps all night and he works all day
I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat'ry
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea
He's a lumberjack...
I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow'rs
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars
He's a lumberjack...
I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspendies and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear papa
He's a lumberjack...
Freakier than Mark Morford ball-gagged and strapped in a sling.
(Precisely what kind of ball he’s gagged with I leave to your imagination.)
Rght out of Elton John’s closet! The models don’t even look like men!
Real men will never wear this.
I’ll bet the designer has a sore backside!!!
Or as a guard at Jerry Brown’s Laurel Canyon home told me, the bushes only hide so much and his parties were leapfrog on the lawn and swallow the leader.
Disgusting. How far society has fallen...
Guys I would NOT want to date.
I agree. other than looking for the "freak show" aspect, I know no one interested in men's fashion.
In 1960, I wore Levi's, white t-shirt, short sleeved sports shirt and lace up shoes. Today, I wear Levi's, black t-shirt, short sleeved sports shirt and loafer shoes. The reasons for my new fashion statement are (1) I got tired or ruining white t-shirts when eating noodles and drinking coffee and (2) my arthritic hands find loafers easier. Most men I know here and overseas dress similarly.
In East Village of New York or the club scene there, these looks are considered the norm. Secondly, I do not think these looks will play well down South or the Mid-West./Just Asking - seoul62.........
I, too, wear the Daily Uniform: black tee, khaki trousers, loafers/mocs/deck shoes, and sometimes a hat. I switch to jeans when working outdoors. I have three gray flannel suits (white shirts, narrow black tie) for use at church services, business meetings, and funerals. I also have a number of Lacoste tennis shirts, one pair of plaid pants (McKay tartan) for golf, and a tuxedo.
Other than PJs and underwear, that’s it.
And this fashion is different how? from any of the other stuff that has always come out of Paris and Milan?
That was the second music video I ever saw (after Billy Idol’s White Wedding). Great album from an underrated artist. Would like to see the song covered by a country artist.
Looks like the uniforms for a new Star Trek movie.
“I wonder if this is a subconscious rebellion on the part of the fashionistas against Islam?”
“OOO, take that,mean Muslim-man!”
Yes, male models are generally on the thin side. Toned, but not beefy.
