Re: Two weeks....
Hi Mouse. You certainly know how to create good looking coherent outfits. Many Thanks, I take that as high praise coming from you. Have you considered sharing these on Instagram or other social media, as I suspect you could build a good following - it would have the potential to reach a much larger...

Re: Wool Skirts Art Exhibit
Like the concept, a lot of those have cuts that would work on a male body, assuming the waist fits, but the prices are crazy. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Two weeks....
So a number of us met in Central Birmingham on the 10th of January. Then what happens over the next two weeks?... Well here you are, day by day in pictures, along with where I went and paraded my skirts. Every picture is outside and in public, whether it is in the road outside my house or in centra...

Re: My public journey #2 - London
The sooner that people stop abiding by those mental constraints, the sooner the situation will change. That day is far away Robbie, I can say that with absolute certainty. I know because I live in a town centre with primary schools and secondary schools within a short walk of my front door. All the...

She says: "would you like to wear a skirt?" What he hears "would you like to be a girl?" Anyone who thinks a man in a skirt looks remotely feminine isn't paying much attention, the body shapes are (in the vast majority of cases) very different. Clothing should not carry any impa...

Re: Colourful guys in skirts...
A lot of the people in gogmagog are also involved with the contra dance community / other kinds of folk dance, like other morris groups, they can be seen at many folk events around the country. 'Men wearing women's clothing' has been a thing in folk traditions for a long time. However I see gogmagog...

Re: Male skirt wearer on LinkedIn!
To me, the outfit looks natural on him, and abides by the points I raised in this article: https://robehickman.com/skirt-silhouettes-men Skirts can look perfectly natural on men if the garments and styling approaches are harmonious with a male body. The main reason men wearing skirts tend to look we...

Re: Gender Blender - Michaela and Vlasta
He obviously knows what garment shapes are harmonious with his body. The garments he is wearing almost always abide by the points I raised in this article:

The two people are not wearing garments with the same shape.

Re: Language for Men's Skirts and Skirted Men
Language for “men’s skirts”? How about just skirts? Because this is the entire problem: the assumption that clothes have a gender. They don’t, people do. I find it amazing on this forum how some people have such hangups about masculinity and femininity. The truth: it’s all made up nonsense. There i...

Re: Language for Men's Skirts and Skirted Men
My sense from reading Skirt Cafe is that one can distinguish two substantial contingents of men wearing skirts. Some make use of the conventional association of skirts with feminity to push back against the conventional association of feminity exclusively with women; Others make use of the conventi...

Re: Dutch Seamstress Makes Dresses fo Boys
The only times I tend to see large numbers of women wearing skirts / dresses nowadays is in hot weather, or for dancing. In both cases they have practical function.

Re: The Kilt that Isn't
My daughter's best friend has children who attend a local primary school and they have sent a letter to parents saying they are changing their uniform policy to be unisex (because they've been pressured to do that from government). The school-style A-line skirt will cease to exist as uniform but ma...

Re: Regarding the complete lack of awareness of fashion history in the mainstream
Even very rudimentary research shows up no end of examples of men wearing skirts / dresses as normal attire. Men wore skirted garments in history, they did NOT wear clothes which would have been designated as feminine. Yes, and this generally looks odd because the body shapes are different, and gar...
