Metro Sexual Fashion

Metro Sexual Fashion: Society Accepted

By: Paris Bell

Fashion over the years has evolved into another of a different kind- men accept a part of feminism into their own lives and incorporate that into their daily routine. Metro sexual men are slowly rising in numbers within the last eighteen years or so, and why do you ask? Men are not the same type of man anymore, fashion is now becoming a large part of society and the men are grabbing hold!

The rate of men staying single longer has risen over the last twenty years. According to the census in 1990, for every 100 women there were 80 single men, now as of 2008 the percentage of single men has risen to almost fifty percent. Many say that this could be because the rate of gay men in America is rising as well, and there is a small line between the gay man and the metro sexual man.

More feminine activities such as spas geared toward men and products that normally women would use are starting to be used by men, even some fashion seen for women are now being seen or being created for men. Deep V sweaters and shirts are set to hit the runway in 2009 for men, a fashion that was seen in the years prior as a womanly fashion.

The metro sexual man is becoming more and more accepted by society, and retailers and designers are seeing that this target customer can make them a very big profit. The rise in metro sexual men will have a positive effect on the fashion industry and over time will be something America will not think twice about judging.
