TRANSCENDENT

TRANSCENDENT is defined as going 'beyond or above the range of normal or physical human experience'. Therefore, this collection encourages wearers to go beyond their limits and experiences to express who they really are by not limiting themselves to the generic stereotype of what is masculine or feminine. Outfits worn on the male body consists of elements that are typically seen on a women’s silhouette and vice versa, through elements of shape, colours, fabrics, textures, and lines.

Clothing, as an aspect of culture, is a crucial feature in the production of masculinity and femininity: it turns nature into culture, layering cultural meanings on the body.

Entwistle, 2000

I think that my men’s clothes look as good on women as my women’s clothing.

I always wonder who decided that there should be a difference in the clothes of men and women.
