Hey, I want that dude's outfit!

Oh, Jean-Paul Gaultier, you bring me so much joy with your runway shenanigans! Last fall, you gave me the size 20 model in lingerie. And now, you give me this:



While I'm normally not into leather jackets with leather boots, I think this outfit actually works. Love the boots, love the skirt, love the turtleneck and I love the jacket. So I suppose the only thing I don't get about this look is why you chose to put it on a man. Did Gemma Ward have a scheduling conflict? Was Lily Cole too slow on her backstage change? Did someone accidentally stash this outfit with that poor man-model's other clothes?

I'm sure there's a sensible explanation because surely you would never allow a man to model women's clothes -- or would you?

It's not women's clothing--it's a kilt. The kilt is historically a man's man's clothing. In other words, it takes a lot of balls for a man to wear something that people just don't get and confuse it with gendered clothing.

It's a kilt, not a woman's skirt. The kilt is historically a man's-man's garment. In other words, it takes a lot of balls for a man to wear something that many ill-informed people mistake for a piece of gendered clothing, such as a skirt. Besides, kilts are incredibly sexy *because* the man who's wearing it is obviously comfortable and supremely confident with his masculinity.

Okay, just because historically this "kilt" was intended for men doesn't mean all men should be sporting this look. And just because a big designer put this look on the runway doesn't mean it's good. This outfit is completly unflattering and I wouldn't want my man wearing anything like this at all. Don't get me wrong, I've seen Scottish men in kilts and the cute ones don't stop being cute when wearing it but it's also tradition. This barely resembles the kilt at all and is just plain feminine. And with that tight leather jacket (showing a more feminine silhouette than a man's) and knee high boots, this outfit was just meant to be for a woman. Things have changed (no men don't wear kilts all day everyday like they used to) and although I applaud Gaultier for thinking outside of the box in terms of men's clothing, I still do not like this look whatsoever.

Lol to the girl who just talked about kilts... kilts are only hot when they actually have the tartan/plaid... lol. I hate the print on the skirt, it looks like it came out of my mom's closet in the 70's. I wouldn't even wear it.
