Florid tropical shirts are “in the closet”? Tell that to vacation dads and overbearing “fun” guys. Wtf is “homosexual dressing” exactly? Stereotypically, it points to flamboyance and camp excess, but the fact that transgressing the arbitrary visual codes of “manly dressing” makes one less of is simply the same imbecilic fallacy as saying any man exhibiting feminine qualities must be gay.Ĭlothes are clothes a man can wear whatever he wants, even if it is something from a woman. During a 2015 interview with The Sunday Times, octogenarian designer Giorgio Armani notoriously commented that men shouldn’t “dress homosexual”, in what can only be fit of senility.
It gets worse when fashion’s own conflate clothing with sexuality.
