Gender.

In recent years the fashion industry has adressed its concerns about the issues of diversity within the industry especially with male and trans models not being as emphasised as women models and women’s wear, re inviting the argument of genderless garments or collections.

•Harry styles

Styles has been in the spotlight since 2010 for his increasing musical career, however styles has also been seen in the media and talked about due to his ‘interesting fahsion’ choices. Anyone who has known of styles for a while can tell you how his career has mainly been full of floral Gucci suits and patterned blouses.

In 2020 Harry styles was seen on the cover or vogue in which he was photographed wearing a dress which sparked debates across social media about masculinity in todays world and peoples opinions of gender fluid fashion. Styles was highly criticised for not being ‘manly’ by the media however the media is trying to promote gender diversity in fashion and criticises the industry for not being diverse. The Vogue images of Harry Styles, if anything, are a representation of exploration, comfort, gender fluidity and non-binary dressing, which shouldn’t be criticised but highlighted as a way of feeling comfortable in the clothes you are wearing and bringing much more diversity into the fashion world. Nothing more, nothing less. Questioning and suggesting things about someone by saying they are any less of a man is really ironic as people are claiming to be changing these stereotypes of what a man and a woman is supposed to be or wear. As a society we are supposed to be evolving and understanding how we don’t have to be labeled a certain way or defined by a gender. But beyond simply feeling good in his clothes and skin, Styles believes that fashion is an essential part of any performance, commenting on several musical icons who've strengthened their public personas through their personal style. "I used to wear all black all of the time,” he said. "But I was realising dressing up was a part of the show, if you will. Especially when performing. So, I think for the people I have always admired and looked up to in music, clothes have always been a big part of the thing. Like Bowie, Elvis Presley. It's always been part of the thing."

• Leah Williamson

Leah Williamson, England captain and Arsenal footballer is often seen in her football kit, loving the pride and unity of it however,any opportunity for Williamson to dress up she leans into it embracing her individuality, love and respect for fashion. An ACL injury has meant Williamson not only sitting out of football and the World Cup, but also out of heels. Instead, loafers have become her go-to making a perfect pairing for tailoring. 'I’m enjoying wearing power suits,' William states it makes her feel powerful and embracing gender neutral fashion is really important to her. Due to football being seen as a ‘masculine’ sport Comfort for Williamson at any sort of fashion based events has come to mean 'glamming up masculine energy. That’s me,' she affirms. 'When you feel comfortable you carry yourself in a way that means you can be your true self.'

•valentina sampaio

today, a huge amount of openly transgender supermodels walk the catwalks of international fashion weeks, snag deals as the faces of big beauty brands and grace the covers of the fashion industry’s most coveted magazines. However, only recently has Vogue debuted its first trans cover star, 22-year-old Brazilian-born Sampaio. Valentina however hasn’t had the easiest of experiences whilst being trans and in the fashion industry in an interview she explains this “Early on, I had a high-profile modeling job, and once they realized on set that I was trans, I was suddenly fired. To share the excitement and pride of a job with friends and family, only to then be shamed and rejected – it is heartbreaking. I am very grateful to God and all the people who have helped me along my journey so far. I honor the challenges of those who came before me, who directly or indirectly have made it possible for me to be where I am today.”
