Re: Input solicited on SKIRTS & PEACE

I second the approach for comfort. Pants were always too constricting - especially shorts. I've always said openly to a broader public that if skirts were socially acceptable for men to wear I would definitely wear them whenever I can - UK weather providing. Now the time has come that I openly wear...

Re: Age, Style & Hemlines

I think it is down to preference but generally as you get older, your hemline usually lowers... I still prefer a knee length pencil style in formal skirts, or 27 inch calf length for the colder months with boots and tights, I might wear a skater style that is above the knee with stockings in summer ...

Re: Bear Grylls

Love the cake! This post has inspired me to wear a kilt again, as I had switched to skirts as they are a lot cheaper... I saw a nice one on Ebay recently called Spirit of Argyll for around £100 at auction but I don't think I can squeeze into a 34 to 36 as I have put on weight, I am up to a size 14 t...

Re: Off on holiday skirted.

I am sure it will go well... I travelled from the UK to Germany skirted - plain black pencil skirt, black stockings (trainers / sneakers for comfort)... I did get searched but it was a tablet in my rucksack (I was searching my bag, after putting most of my electronics in a tray) found it wrapped up ...

Re: Advice from Faverie website

There's so many pics of Mark Bryan who has showcased corporate skirts for the office, apart from the obvious kilt, nothing at all. They could have even checked Reddit :roll:

Re: Why don't men wear skirts?

Being able to connect with the likes of Rihanna, who's partner himself embraces fashion freedom, one never knows who else may take up the skirt You kind of confirm my point NTS, we don't know! Mark with his "celebrity" status or our fellow cafe members? I had a quick trawl of photos of Ro...

Re: Why don't men wear skirts?

It will never happen for men because they are taught by their fathers when they are several years old about homophobia and that anything girly like a skirt is inferior and to be avoided like the plague. They are told that the worst thing that you can be called is a 'girl". Until there is true ...

Re: Why don't men wear skirts?

When they present here they invariably recieve encouragement when perhaps realistic encouragement is needed. Hi BM, Can I ask that you expand a bit on the "realistic" part please? My own descriptors have been labelled as quite negative to the point of hostility in the past so I won't reit...

Re: NSS magazine: Who's actually buying men's skirts?

At least the article did not truck out the usual padding of the history of men in skirts and how Harry Styles, Brad Pitt, lil nas x, Robert Pattinson, John Cena are really pushing for it. 🙄 are they? Maybe a dash out for the camera publicity shoot and swiftly back in trousers. They paint a realisti...

Re: Silly Season

Interesting that none of the boys (at least 6 of them) never got teased for wearing skirts and the teachers thought it was a good idea. Summer in UK always brings the inevitable skirt stories out :mrgreen:

Re: adidas pride dress

I thought it would have been in Pride colours... but at least Adidas are putting it out there for men by using a male model, it might strike a chord in communities such as people of color who may not look favourably on fashion freedom. Both the dress and model do not seem too outrageous as some of t...

Re: How do you wear your skirt?

Depends on the garment. High waisted pencil skirts at my tummy (navel) any lower then the tops of my tights would show :oops: for jeans skirts, the pockets sit at the top of my butt and generally the zip is short, so no need to wear them like a pair of jeans. If a micro mini skirt, then on my hips :...
