The Very Queer, Extremely Relevant Power Of A Good Waistcoat

The Very Queer, Extremely Relevant Power Of A Good Waistcoat | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it

The last time I was seriously considering the debonair potential of a waistcoat, I was eight and raiding the dress-up box for something pirate-appropriate – striped t-shirt, eye-patch, and kohl moustache included.

Designer Stefano Gabbana: 'I Don't Want To Be Called Gay'

Designer Stefano Gabbana: 'I Don't Want To Be Called Gay' | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it
The Dolce & Gabbana co-founder says he's "simply a man ... full stop."
Destiny McNeill's curator insight, April 16, 2021 12:27 PM
The co-founder of Dolce & Gabbana, Stefano Gabbana states that he doesn't want to be called "gay" because the term was made for people who wanted to put a label on themselves. The designer Dolce & Gabbana has raised eyebrows when it comes to the LGBTQ+ issues because they made a comment about children being born through in vitro, saying that they are children of chemistry. Many other designers called them out for this and they had to backtrack and think about what they were saying and how insensitive that was to the LGBTQ+ community. They came back stating that "we do believe in freedom and love".

In The Heart of Political Ukraine, Kiev Clothing Anonymously Explores Gay Eastern Europe

In The Heart of Political Ukraine, Kiev Clothing Anonymously Explores Gay Eastern Europe | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it
With countries like Chechnya unceremoniously attacking homosexual populations, treatment of LGBTQA communities in Eastern Europe and Russia has become a widespread topic of concern. Despite rare exceptions (Russia continues to have a bustling drag scene, for example), the community isn’t legally protected from any form of discrimination and prohibits the distribution of propaganda promoting “non-traditional” sexual relationships to minors. Thus, there exists a soft-spoken, seemingly underground culture in these regions where the community can live within the gray zone of what is legal and what is not. Enter Kiev.

Men’s Clothing Has Gotten Insanely Tight! How Did We Get Here?

Men’s Clothing Has Gotten Insanely Tight! How Did We Get Here? | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it

What is the soundtrack to our age? Is it drones buzzing overhead? Relentless cellphone yakking? Rattling pill bottles or jackhammering condo construction? No. It’s the sound of splitting seams. And not just because the population is getting fatter—it undeniably is, but that’s not why we are gathered here today. Call it body-conscious bespoke. Call it castration couture. We are here to talk about the current epidemic of hyperfitted, nut-mangling menswear.
