Only makes sense. I’d love to see yukata and formal kimono make an even bigger comeback. In particular, the slender hips on Japanese men holds up the shape perfectly.

I think the Yohji Yamamoto sweaterdress on the chap eating is beautiful.

i like the formal dresses, but the modern ones not so much… though the long sweater is adorable C:
i think the ‘dresses’ in 2005 looked better than now…

Men in skirts makes my heart beat so hard. As long as they wear skirts that fit them well it’s one of the sexiest things next to glasses and kimono. More of this please!

wow that’s awkward… makes them look short

i think its super sexy. i can’t wait until the asian cookies in nyc take up the style!! i’d die of joy~

@Kjeld Dutis & @Ren ::

A hispanic male may be the first to do this not only in NYC but in New Jersey and Philadelphia. I always wanted to try one but due to the family that I have to deal with what’s normal and what’s not…Yeah…It will be a bit difficult. Either way I like the Idea. Only in a black color though if it has like a plaid print or a Kanji character print.

Either or…its fine with me.

I am male and having been wearing skirts and kilts for years – they are so stylish and comfortable. I hope that more guys will start to wear skirts in the USA. I prefer ankle-length skirts, especially broomstick skirts, which are so much fun to dance in. I love wearing skirts to concerts, festivals, parties, etc. I get lots of great compliments from the Ladies. My blog is all about guys in skirts (click on the link).

@Kjeld – Thanks so much for the comment! Yes, I am a bit nervous wearing my skirts out but so far it I have received only positive comments. However, I am selective on where I wear my skirts – concerts, parties, etc. Contra Dancing is a kind of folk dancing with partners that is pretty open to guys in skirts. At many dances, you may find a couple guys wearing long skirts or kilts. Some of the the dances have “Men in Skirts” dances when they encourage men to try a skirt on for dancing. I have worn a three-tiered skirt to a Contra Dance and had lots of fun spinning and twirling in my skirt. The Ladies gave me lots of support like “Cute Skirt!” and “That skirt looks great on you!” I will keep posting about guys in skirts and hope that the USA becomes more accepting of guys in skirts in the future.

It is just great when men taking advantage to go skirted. Hard to understand that some men still thinking in old ways. I am a full supporter for mens skirts and dresses, the new male fashion shows what is really possible to get out of the grey, super boring pant-dress style.

Kjeld, I only can talk about my environment, little bit north of Detroit. I am a every day skirt wearer, and wherever I go I got and still get very nice comments from both, men and women. It is like they were waiting for this signal that somebody would start going out of uniformed and grey herd.
And I am VERY public every day. For most people around me it is “normal” that i am going skirted. So far I saw only one man recently in a skirt.

I have been wearing kilts for 6 months now almost everyday. Women love them., I get a few silly comments from guys. ( who wish they had the balls to wear one) I have nation kilts , Utilikits, Alpha Kilts and more. If you think about it it makes sence for a guy in skirts.

Look for the spring fashion for women and you’ll see a lot of men’s clothes and helpful advises for women how to wear it. Now think opposite, all what women can wear use it with a manly touch (advise for women: use men’s wear with a feminine touch). I think we are on the right way to go equal, don’t you think?
I am still wearing my very manly styled skirts, maybe I should change a little bit, too.

That female judge in Florida should be ousted from the bench for letting women wear more than men!

Finally !!! Seems men start to get more brave these days.

Pants were spread about by horseback riding. How many men use that transportation today? Skirts are sex neutral. Ask men from ancient Sumeria to modern Fiji.

I have found a new freedom in wearing a skirt and stockings. Stockings are essential in colder weather to keep legs warm, as knee length socks are too cold. Remind me of the traditional schoolboy shorts hitched up with braces (suspenders if in the US). I wear the classic stocking types that require suspenders (a garter belt in the US) as I react to those latex bands inside ‘hold-ups’, which don’t, hence the suspenders. I find this all rather interesting as a lady friend who wears a suit with pinstripe trousers wears braces as they make her rear look more shapely. What we all do to be chic and fashionable, sort of!

Yes,guys wear skirts.And i am one of them that wears a skirt to work and when im not at work i will wear one.I just dont see what the big deal is.For me wearing a skirt is as normal as brushing my teeth.Dont give it much thought.Prior to WWII women could be arrested and jailed for appearing in public in pants in most U.S. States.
With the onset of the war women went to work in the factories, dressesd and skirts were not practical and sometimes even dangerous. So women began wearing pants to work and it grew from there. So it has only been for around 70 years. One other note is that boys here in America also wore dresses, boys up to 15 yrs. of age, although some or most boys were “Breeched” by 9 years of age. Breeching was when boys were changed over to pants.When a women says she want to wear a pair of pant, society celebrates her right for equality, but when a man say he wants to wear a skirt, his gender identity is brought into question. No one says a woman is crossdressing in pants, no one says that she is a lesbian, so why do we think these things of men. Attitudes towards men’s fashion is extremely sexist and restrictive.Skirts like pants are not “gender specific” like a bra thus are largely unisex! Anyone can wear them but of course there are styles better suited for men and women. Ever notice how women in pants still look like women yet a guy in a skirt will be accused of “cross dressing” or worse yet it is IMPOSSIBLE for women to “cross dress” because they already wear everything from the mans side of the wardrobe. The word should be banned as sexist.
