Models Jourdan Dunn and Kendall Jenner shows sneak peak at the red carpet

Since 2019 there has been an increase in gender-fluid clothing. This is not a specific style or trend but rather a recognition that clothing does not have to belong to one gender or another. This is a social construct that the fashion world became comfortable with, but not anymore. In 2019, 56 percent of Gen Z consumers shopped outside of their “gender area,” 41 percent of Gen Z answered neutral on the gender spectrum and over half answered something other than heterosexual. This shows that the upcoming generation is ready to break norms, customs, and standards. The fashion industry has realized that dressing is a way to express oneself, and it should be purely self-constructed. Therefore, retailers like Zara and H&M have launched genderless clothing lines. While they did receive some backlash, there will always be critics, and it is clear the trends are headed toward more fluid options for everyone.
