Guiliana Fujiwara and Gareth Pugh advocate the appropriation of [feminine attire](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sujitha-shivajothi) with [floor-sweeping, pleated affairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woven-cargo-midi) worn with [black layers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/north-seainspired-fallwinter-2025-line) and high-tops that are very much removed of all female connotations. Referencing samurai warriors, Japanese hakamas and dhotis, this theme comes with a longstanding tradition. Technically Pugh's skirt consists of super wide legged trousers, but the effect is the same.
