Would YOu wear- a wrap skirt with Vinyl Tights+sandals?


I am usually open minded about new fashion trends.
But After seeing Givenchy's Fall/Winter Men's collection, I ask myself whether a new trend which Riccardo Tisci presented is Chic or is it just being dramatic for the sake of it.

My first reaction was wow- Men's skirts really is becoming fashionable- another door have opened for men's clothing. Then I throught about it, something about the material and the cut of the skirt doesnt feel quite right- There is a fine line between being androgynous and looking like you put on something from your mother's/girl friend's/sister's closet. This almost feel like its crossing over- esp when its paired with the tights and the sandals and the suits.

Maybe its just the shiny fabric- or the lack of "masculine" elements- no belt or strong lines or heavy fabrics to make it feel masculine.

My conclusion to this is- it IS crossing boundaries. And its refreshing to see men's fashion opening up and stepping out of the box, and when its paired with the t-shirt or just the shirt, it IS kind of chic. But i am NOT sure whether personally i would wear it- the wrap skirt silhouette is just way too feminine and I dont think i will wear it with the shiny tights and the sandals.

What do you guys think?
