Originally, women wearing pants were mocked and pointed at, but they were a crucial phenomenon for the emancipation movement. Trousers - more comfortable and functional than long skirts, favoured active leisure time, and most of all - gave women a choice. This season, fashion gives men a choice and delivers items and cuts that were previously perceived as commonly feminine. We have seen skin-revealing shorts by VTMNTS, corset tops at Balenciaga shows, and skirts at Moschino and Jil Sander.

Floral motifs bloomed on the Etro catwalk, Dolce & Gabbana delighted with lace, and there were also handbags and jewellery. Generation Z, which plays a huge part in creating current trends, more and more often undermines the binary gender division and socially accepted rules and norms, which can be seen in their TikTok outfits. They fearlessly play with contrasts, blending what is feminine and dominated the Etro collection together with extremely short shorts removal of armour that will allow everyone to express their personality without let or hindrance. Will the no-gender trend, very popular on the catwalks oflate and blurring the lines between women's and men's fashion, bring us another revolution?
