Over the past several seasons, it's become quite apparent that fashion girls have abandoned overtly sexy outfits in favor of oversize, athletic, and menswear-inspired looks. Some would say that this shift began in 2010 when Leandra Medine introduced the "Man Repeller" concept. The (likely temporary) nail was cemented on the "sexy"-outfit coffin when Balenciaga and Vetements creative director Demna Gvasalia influenced consumers and other designers with his signature exaggeratedly oversize designs. The trend has naturally trickled down to fast-fashion brands, with Zara and H&M filling recent fall collections with oversize and ungendered styles.
Throughout the most recent fashion month, we couldn't help but notice one fashion insider after another donning covered-up, oversize, and masculine-inspired outfits instead of tight, skin-baring ones. Some brought feminine touches to their looks via accessories, color, and draped fabric, but not a hint of "sexy" was in sight.
