Men wearing skirts? Is this really a thing?
Yep, get ready for it! Men have been wearing them for centuries, all the way back to the days of tartan kilts. Even in modern men’s fashion, designers have been pushing long, pleated, kilt-like designs for decades. Names like Raf Simons, Jean Paul Gaultier, and Rick Owens have sent male models in skirts down runways since the ‘90s. And in 2007, Thom Browne, who is now all but synonymous with “skirts for men,” sent his first male model in a skirt down the runway.
So, our answer to Rick Owen’s denim skirt is yes, please!
Besides the denim skirt, we’d like to point out Rick Owen’s artfully distressed hems and jeans. You can tell he really put a lot of thoughts and efforts into the destruction of his denims, each piece can almost be described as an artwork – check them out below.
You can shop for Rick Owens at SSENSE women/men, YOOX, MYTHERESA, and at farfetch women/men.
