Hi Gusto,
Sure there are plenty wearable ideas that come from the catwalks, things that I would wear in a heartbeat.
I still feel that the man in manskirt adds a premium which is wholly unnecessary or justifiable.
That is a wholly separate issue from the exclusivity that arises from original and truly innovative creation.
Still it is nice to dream occasionally but alas, one must cut one's cloth etc,
Steve.

I don't quite understand the "exclusivity" cost added to "mens-only" skirts. Outside of generally expensive brands, perhaps it's partially related to minimum quantities, and the fact that they have to devote a ton of effort to something that, unfortunately, isn't going to fly off the shelves like we'd like them to. Again, I keep saying it, but some major clothing manufacturers could simple slap on a different label to compatible designs and 'boom' sourcing/quantities solved.

The exclusivity applies to the original design as opposed to the derivatives created from it by the various brands such as NEXT, ASOS.
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.
