UNI
“Neither feminizing the man, nor masculinizing the women,
but an equilibrium point.
Black, white and shades of gray in their brightness, opacity
and transparency, hiding, revealing and decorating a
body, only human, with the ability of shifting between
genders, being sometimes one, sometimes another, sometimes both and sometimes
neither.
This is the contemporary gender, translated into
rectilinear, achromatic and neutral clothing.
UNI, for UNITY”
Background of the Conceptual
The incredible scansion of the image promoted in fashion over
the twentieth century begins to reveal its effects, it can now be
observed in its total volume and it is eagerly analyzed by a
youth who essentially want freedom.
Over one hundred years the transitions were numerous. The genders
have been set up, consolidated and redefined several times, obeying
the interests of the current image broadcasters,
carrying associations we now perceive as transitory
and not mandatory.
This youth has an excused sexuality,
gender is a state of mind.
The aesthetical lenguage applyed to this collection was createde so that this way of
being gets explicited. Colors and shapes must be disconnected from the definitions of
masculine and feminine, but rather, a phase
neutrality should be faced. So black, white and gray
appear, for they are historically less tied to the definitions of gender;
and rectilinear forms that remove the implicit allusions to the corporal characteristics.
What this proposes is bluring the lines between genders. The recall through perception
that we are all human and
we express ourselves according to the context of our time.
It is not about androgyny,
its about freedom of sexual expression.
These clothes are not timeless, nothing is. They are the expression of the
beginning of a change, latent in society walking towards unity.

Many online shoes stores don't understand the word "unisex"
I made a search by google with "unisex high heels" keywords. What I found: a lot of online stores sell "men unisex heels" and "women unisex heels". How this shoes are unisex if they are different for men and women?
Weird!
Weird!
New year thoughts
After three years of searching the men that usually wear high heels, after three years of posts about men wearing high heels and after 650000 visitors, there are several conclusions that can be drawn now:
- the first is that something is moving, more and more designers create high heels for men or put their male models on high heels
- the second is that unfortunately too few men wear these high heels designed for them in daily manner
- the third is that there is an explanation for this fact: is the feeling of fear of being judged as gay people
- the forth: the high heels are, in general opinion, strong connected with women sexuality and they are used to attract men. But ironically Time magazine reports "Men Don't Notice When Women Wear High Heels"
- and the final conclusion: the first step on the way to high heels for men is the regaining unisex or even asexual character by high heels.
If you agree with it, I invite all of you to fight for high heels becoming unisex or asexual.
