Italian-Japanese fashion designer Nicola Formichetti is now producing a genderless clothing line that can be worn by anyone. After working for top fashion magazines and clothing labels, Formichetti is turning his attention to the world of agender fashion.
Formichetti's new line is called 'Nicopanda' and it is specially designed for people of any gender identity. Despite the fact that some garments consists of frilly dresses and sheer blouses, the line is indented to move fluidly between traditional female styles and traditional male styles. As Formichetti explains, "It's our job to provide as many options as possible for people to choose from so they can be whatever and whoever they want to be."
Formichetti's genderless clothing line ultimately demonstrates that consumers are gradually moving away from strict rules about gender-specific clothing.
