# Tube Tops for Men Jean Paul Gaultier's Sleeveless Denim Shirts for Dudes By Rachel | Published 2009-06-30 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jean-paul-gaultier-denim-tube-top References: [pipeline.refinery29](http://pipeline.refinery29.com/fashion_week/bad_men_10_looks_from_mens_fas.php#more) & [jeanpaulgaultier](http://www.jeanpaulgaultier.com/) I don’t want to sound sexist, but there are some looks that men shouldn’t wear. I think these denim tube tops for men by Jean Paul Gaultier may need to be filed under that category. The denim tube tops by Jean Paul Gaultier were shown at [Men’s Fashion Week](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-of-finland-foundation) in Milan, and certainly drew some attention. The button-front tube tops were shown in both [light and dark denim](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/denim-coverall-vintage)--not that either make the look more acceptable. Men, you no longer need to worry about those pesky tan lines on your shoulders, you have your own tube tops now! Check out the Jean Paul Gaultier tube tops above. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Luxury Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxuryfashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Men in Tube Tops:** Opportunities in the fashion industry for avant-garde designers to create more gender-bending looks. - **Gender-neutral Clothing:** Challenges and opportunities for designers to create clothing that transcends traditional gender norms. - **The Death of Gendered Fashion:** A shift in the fashion industry towards more inclusive and fluid clothing offerings for all individuals. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Exploration of new unisex clothing markets and new types of consumers. - **Retail:** Challenge of aligning new clothing products with evolving gender norms, consumer preferences and the challenge of seasonal planning. - **Marketing:** The innovative challenge of marketing unorthodox clothing items to a diverse range of consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pride Month Perfume Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jean-paul-gaultier-perfume.md) - [White Denim Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/house-of-hellmanns.md) - [Men-Focused Everyday Wear Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skims-mens.md) - [Summer-Ready Crochet Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crochet-open-knit.md) - [Flattering Retro Oversized Denim](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jnco.md) - [Purposefully Stained Luxe Trousers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pee-stain-denim.md) - [Underwear-Imitating Hybrid Garments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cut-off-brief-skirt.md) - [One-Legged Luxury Fashion Jeans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onelegged-jean.md) - [Pride-Honoring Joint Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-of-finland-foundation.md)
