'Gender-bending fashion'?

I find this fascinating. Obviously, high fashion has form for being very odd indeed, but I haven't seen quite the focus on men wearing the ridiculous, impractical garb before.

I thought the comment that someone wearing the big black sleeping bag walking down the high street would potentially get a less glowing response than on the red carpet where it's all 'daring and innovative' was interesting. Because yes, the guy looks ridiculous, and he's being very theatrical, and the whole point about being theatrical is for people to notice you and to provoke a reaction.

Also, couldn't help wondering what else you could do except walk a red carpet in it. It's not really a 'nip to Morrisons' outfit, although I can see it being useful on the touchline watching your kids play sports...

As a small child I would have gleefully followed zir round chanting
Ex-Ter-Mi-Nate! Ex-Ter-Mi-Nate!

How would they piddle?

Earlier this week, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Ezra Miller said he identified as queer.
"He is remarkable, he's comfortable with all pronouns," says Otamere.
"The fluidity and effortlessness is what really captivates me."

The absurdity and ridiculousness is what really captivates me.

How would they piddle?

I'd assume in a gender neutral toilet.

How is it 'gender bending'? Because he is not wearing trousers? Because he is wearing lippy?

What has it got to do with LGBT really?

It does look warm though -great for snow.

Or is it gender bending because its usually the women who wear the attention seeking ridiculous outfits whilst the men just wear a tux or a suit?

As an aside, I can't see Ezra Miller as anything other Kevin from 'We Need to Talk About Kevin'. I'm sure he is probs my perfectly nice in real life but.....

What the actual. He looks like an inflatable Dalek. That’s not gender bending. It’s just fancy dress.

You wouldn't get abuse walking down the high street in that outfit because it looked too feminine... you'd get abuse but that wouldn't be the reason.

Lols what a piece of shite. Was he not just wearing his big jacket or I dunno,stuff u put on crops to keep them warm

The more I look at it, I think it would be great if we get another bad winter. I could glide to the shops like a gothic snowperson. There's room for a shopping trolley under there, and maybe even a small dog.

That lippy will be a right sod to get off your mugs, though. And your hair would look very odd indeed after too long under there.

But yes, I am thinking Davros, tbh.

I could pop under there being a small dog

Well he'd be perfectly safe if you tripped him up. A bit like The Grim Reaper does Its A Knockout.

People who wake up in the morning, fling the doors of their wardrobe open and say to themselves, "Yes today is the day I want to dress as a Dalek" are either small children, Dr Who fans into cosplay or massive attention seekers.

Gender or sex has nothing to do with it.

😂😂😂

But does it have pockets?

'When Davros became Davrina'.

Boom! Great question freespeecher

What an utter bellend.

At least Bowie looked GOOD!

It’s Mr Blobby - the Goth years

Nothing is original.

I'm really too old to consider 'absurd' a goal or compliment for my life...

Have at it kids, certainly no-one in the world (of fashion or otherwise) has ever thought of theatrical or shocking attire before. Nope. Totally unique. Inspired. Changing the world.

I need a cup of tea and a lie down.

I want one
