'It is fatal to be a man or woman pure and simple; one must be woman-manly or man-womanly.'
Virginia Woolf
This style pays homage to the concept of androgyny. When designing clothes or putting outfits together I've always been inspired by combining traits or pieces typically associated with one gender, to create juxtaposition. I feel most like myself when I wear clothes that don't fit my body in a typically feminine way but feature overtly feminine details like frills or flowers. To contrast this I've been trying to create the perfect T-Shirt, a totally genderless garment, and so this style was born.
This t-shirt is generous and purposefully oversized so it can be worn alone or as an overgarment. It features free-hand embroidery and the word androgyny also coincidentally features my name 'agy' in it.
