In an era of gender fluidity, Mark Tamayo has infused feminine patterns in a masculine  showdown. The blend of neutrals, of classic stripes, of edgy structures and oversized silhouettes balance out the femininity in skirts and crop tops.

Though skirts on men is still a little too much to handle in the PH, we can’t deny how good it looked on Mark’s runway show. The play with striped shirts tucked under neutral and edgy skirts is more masculine than what we have ever imagined.

Mark’s coords and stylish shirts will surely be a hit in the market! Shop for these looks today at Mark Tamayo’s Zalora page.
