    I totally agree, wish I could pos rep these comments. I just don't understand people who moan about what other people wear. Like, if it's not hurting anyone then why get so bothered about it?

    And for the record, I think those pictures are kinda cool. They're fashiony and good on him for being interesting and confident enough to not conform like a sheep to what others deem "good/normal"
    Thanks, I don't understand why I got negged 5 times :confused:
    I agree male fashion can be so boring, I love it when a guy's style is interesting.

    Ohh, well Westminster is I'm sure a good college. Are there fashion victims and fashion police operating there?
    ah college yes but sadly not the uni, not at my campus, but there is this one girl who always wears a bowler hat and it makes me chuckle.

    LOL, I like unusual headwear, the bowler has a kind of 60s, chic, don't-care kind of feel to it, skillfully worn with the correct air of nonchalant indifference.

    They're still the funniest after all this time. No one ever came close on comic timing, apart from maybe Chaplin IMHO.

    Bowler hats on girls could be kinda sexy actually, it makes me think of cabaret style stuff.

    In that style yes, but I am partial to a bit of Morecambe and wise :P

    Exactly. There is "expressing yourself" and then there is "Look at Me". In my personal experience, guys who wear this sort of thing tend to fall in the latter category.
    yeah well the guy i know is a complete self confessed diva :rolleyes:

    ! Heels are normally associated with women and mostly men don't have the need nor the necessity to even wear heels... I mean, even I can't walk in those but he's so casual about it?
    Don't forget that platform shoes were incredibly popular in the 60's and 70's with both men and women.Culture constantly changes due to influences from music/art/media/politics and fashion. In the victorian period boys were dressed in skirts, and the colour that was considered masculine was actually pink! It's difficult to make absolute, universal statements about gender and fashion as definitions change from period to period.
