    God, I actually hope this theory comes true. I HATE going clothes shopping, and every bit of men's clothing is neutral colors, blacks, jeans, and t shirts. Although, now that you mention it, I have noticed that the t-shirts have been getting more colorful. I've always envied ladies' fashion and its wide gamut of colors.

    • @crashb800
      @crashb800 10 місяців тому +14

      Definitely yes, and also hopefully this can become true about some of the silhouettes (skirts, dresses, puffed shoulders) that seemingly only women have access to. I'm thinking of things such as medieval fantasy wizards that have access to a silhouette that is essentially a dress while still looking masculine.

    I would also like to point something I noticed as a social media user. It was a trend to dress in pink to go see the Barbie movie in theaters, and I did notice a large amount of men/boys participating. I remember talking with one of my male friends (16) who had gone to see it, and he told me it changed the way he thought about gender and masculinity. This movie had a huge cultural impact and im seeing a lot of positive change! :)

    Having been a teenager in the '80s, this trend looks very familiar to me. It was the era of hair metal and spandex, so it wasn't at all unusual to see men wearing neon and/or pastel colors and wanting to stand out. I'm very happy to see a modern take on it becoming popular, thanks to the Barbie movie.

      That's the best part of the whole thing, I think - it's about empowerment and expression. Splash that suave dark purple vest into your 'boring black' suit because it's what speaks to you. Inject some bright greens into your classic Goth fashion to add a blaze of that personal touch. At the end of the day, the important thing is that you reasonably *can* reach deep into the well of expression for the colors that vibe with you, not that you necessarily 'have to' go nuts with them.

Texture with black helps to spruce it up a lot, but having a smaller part of the outfit have a pop of colour like you described for that "blaze of personal touch" is genius.

    I VERY RARELY see men who wear pink or any bright of neon clothes since the “Manly Men Wear Pink” movement. I’m sad that it died off so early and even as a goth woman it makes me happy seeing that since the movie was announced more men/women/nonbinary/etc have been seeing wearing pink and other fun patterns inspired by barbie. I’m even seeing GOTH WOMEN AND MEN implementing pink into their makeup to support the movie, which is super iconic. Believe it or not, Barbie really is for everyone.

      I propose steel plate armor for go to apocalypse wear. Pros: Built in resistance to a lot of things that can harm you, incredible style, and you feel cool. Cons: Traps heat, weak to blunt force and attacks to the gaps for movement, and the slight extra-weight and minor hinderance to mobility -And if you chose to wear a helmet, Hindered visibility.
      -Side note: contrary to popular belief: Battle-grade Plate armor is not very heavy or restricting. The average Knight in full plate armor can do dark souls rolls and even mount horses without any assistance. The misconception comes from Jousting armor, which was made to protect the wearer at all costs, making it impractical for real battle.

    4:36 the first major fashion shift for men's fashion from film can actually be traced to a full twos decades earlier than the 50's. In the film, It Happened One Night Clark Gable removed his shirt to reveal he wasn't wearing an undershirt because it was messing up the pacing of the scene. The men's undershirt industry never recovered.
