Definition

It can include shared collections, flexible sizes, customizable cuts or style codes that are not tied to binary gender roles.

In simple words

Gender neutral does not mean that all bodies are built the same. A good fit still requires information about dimensions, proportions and cut. Feminine or masculine details can also be offered in a gender-neutral manner and can be worn independently by different people.

What to pay attention to

  • Use specific clothing measurements instead of just the category or size designation.
  • Check your shoulders, chest, hips and stride length according to your body.
  • Choose the style effect based on your own identity and desired expression, not based on the sales department.

Common misconceptions

Gender-neutral fashion is not automatically oversized, colorless or androgynous. Neutrality refers to attribution, not to a single optic.

ESKYNA note

Gender-neutral fashion expands choice options - but a good fit still remains specific.
