Fe-Male Fashion

Traditionally female fashion and accessories are getting a macho facelift

Implications - From man purses to male lingerie, nearly every category of female fashion and accessories is getting a masculine touch. What makes this trend so interesting is that it opens up dozens of product categories that only need a simple refit. We’re at a point where acceptance is increasing, but limited selection means that new products still generate massive buzz.
