Gisele Zixuan He

I grew up in an Asian patriarchal family, and my grandfather is a man who represents Male Chauvinism. He wears a suit everyday for showing he’s prestigious even when he has retired. Under the influence of the old generation patriarchy, it has brought me the reflection on the unitary attitude towards men’s dressing style and definition of manhood in current society, which makes the Asian men in the young generation feeling uncomfortable to comply with the old-fashioned rules in such a system. From this perspective, my goal is to reform the classic menswear wardrobe by breaking the common structure and colour combination for establishing a softer male role.
