In celebration of the 100th anniversary of renowned French jeweler and watchmaker Cartier, iconic photographer Bruce Weber has put together "Cartier I Love You," a collection of photographs and documents from the company's archive and his own.
The first image in the gallery shows male model Richard Lima wearing a large feminine necklace. Marc Jacobs sported women's jewelry--an Andrew Grima necklace--last year. Could this mean that the trend of men wearing women’s accessories is breaking into the mainstream?
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Men Wearing Women's Accessories
- As more men experiment with wearing women's jewelry, there is opportunity for gender-neutral fashion brands to emerge and cater to this market.
- Genderless Jewelry Design
- Designers can explore creating jewelry that does not conform to traditional gender norms to appeal to this new market.
- Celebrity Endorsement of Gender-bending Fashion
- As more male celebrities embrace wearing women's jewelry, there is opportunity for fashion brands to partner with them and promote genderless fashion.
