“Nowadays, certain garments are asexual: t-shirts, tank-tops, jeans, jackets, they suit both sexes. The morphology of today’s youth is almost the same, they share the same attitudes. A boy has two arms, two legs like a girl. What’s more sportswear has resulted in a certain vestimentary egalitarianism that didn’t exist before, and that has changed the concept and the vision of the wardrobe. If you put on a t-shirt, you don’t say to yourself, ‘Today I’m dressing as a woman’, do you?”
