These boyish female looks exhibit atypical ways for women to dress themselves. Executed with a mind for prototypical male ensembles, each of these productions manages to align masculine apparel with an entirely modern take on women.
Edgy androgyny portraits and gender-bending campaigns have all come to the fore of recent fashion ventures. Women are no longer enthralled with typical displays of dresses, skirts, bustiers and crop tops. In its place, many have found themselves searching for indeterminate looks, furthering the inclination of designers towards tuxedos, boyfriend jeans, fedoras, blazers and even ties.
World-renowned models like Agyness Deyn and Ana Beatriz Barros have mastered the allure of in-between appearances, proudly sporting short hair cuts and minimalist makeup.
