Marc Jacobs proving that the man-skirt can be very chic |
But at the end of the day, is a skirt really that offensive on a man? Sure, I will be the first to admit that I'm not the biggest fan of the man-skirt - but with the right choice of fabric, length etc... They can look really great - see Marc Jacobs or Kanye West as an example.
And there's also the other issue - that has always baffled me - kilts on the whole are culturally acceptable, being a key part of Scottish heritage. However, as soon as you shy away from the tartan print - switch it for say even a safe black - it becomes considered too feminine or even inappropriate for a man to wear. Personally I think Marc Jacobs, someone who is never afraid of challenging men's fashion in his day to day life (e.g his pink dress) looks very chic and not to mention hot in this outfit, but then I think Marc Jacobs looks hot in about everything.
