the gender binary is being questioned
more than ever before is there a need to
place a gender binary on clothing and a
new generation is moving towards genuine
fluidity gender is just a construct two
people should just be free to dress
Haeundae one - my name is Mun Roberto
and I'm going to meet some of the bold
and brazen minds and fashion
redefining gender as we know it if I
promise to be myself I want you to
promise that you will be yourself every
single day people's experiences are
being wound into fashion so much more
it's like what people see is what we
would have put out into the world so I
think clothes really do have a power my
mom bought me a t-shirt I remember being
so excited she gave it to me because it
was so oversized that it felt like I was
wearing a dress I guess that's when I
first started to feel more comfortable
and not having to conform to
expectations of what I should and
shouldn't wear I feel like the
non-binary conversation really is
happening within the younger generation
I feel like it's the next step today I'm
going to have a fitting with Tommy
Turner from art school I love their
aesthetic I love what they're about I
love their selection of models so I was
instantly fascinated knows that you got
to let me walk next season hello we're
so excited when you reached out just
like oh my god we need to make it happen
I would say Monroe falls into our icons
category those icons really kind of
stabilized the whole collection
yeah I like the tattoos as well it's
really nice yes yeah yeah really like
that like I would really really come
yeah yes it looks like they're showing
women's wear at Men's Fashion Week but I
think in doing that they're saying that
these clothes don't need to be for women
I think that the gender-neutral
conversation we pushed forward and I
think that that's what art school to
doing and we makeup done and what I'm
wearing make me look really good
very for me really acting as a driving
force behind the show in the same way
that we are Chinese girls are this
season with non-binary fashion sort of
my biggest experience and immersion into
it has been being involved in art school
is there a need to place a gender binary
on clothing removing that from fashion
will allow like a space for people to
explore themselves even further when I
first started transitioning I wanted to
be as binary as possible I wanted to be
as feminine as possible so I felt like I
had to prove it to everybody I found
success to being myself I found success
in letting go of the binary every single
morning when I wake up I think is the
most important part of my day you like
put an outfit together sometimes I think
that you have more men than anyone when
you wearing a skirt you brave
I'm so happy to be part of the hot
school family it's really strange how
there's like women's wear menswear
people should just be free to address
how they want to because it just feels
so good I honestly feel like the future
fashion is non-binary hands bodies and
non-binary bodies we need the
representation looking at myself as a
holistic being is one of the most
freeing things I've ever done for myself
I didn't know that there was gonna be a
time when I would find my people the
next step is me using my platform to
support others I think art school are
those people right now once society
starts viewing each other as just people
rather than labels that will just filter
into the fashion industry
I would say embrace every single part of
yourself and realize your worth I really
feel that I'm testament to success comes
when you embrace who you are
