If you think this whole gender fluid fashion thing is a passing fad, get
ready to settle in for a long wait. First Jaden Smith got attention
last January when he became the face of Louis Vuitton women's wear, posing in a dress for the campaign. Then came the Google Fashion Trendreport
that reinforced the fact that gender lines are blurring. And now
there's Young Thug, the Atlanta rapper who just released his new mixtape
No, My Name is JEFFREY, featuring a cover photo of him wearing (bet you know where we're going with this), a dress.
There's
actually two photos; one on the cover where he's kickin' it in a violet
dress by Italian designer Alessandro Trincone and hiding under a
bonnet, and then the tracklist photo, which features the same ensemble,
only with him peeking out from under the bonnet and smiling.
Considering
the bottom-shelf version of humanity that often pipes up on social
media, the reaction on Twitter has been refreshingly positive;
Find someone that looks at you the way Young Thug looks at us. pic.twitter.com/MOYLLtxk1A— Kofie Y. (@KofieYeboah) August 26, 2016
