Androgyny

"Male and female represent the two sides of the great radical dualism. But in fact they are perpetually passing into one another. Fluid hardens to solid, solid rushes to fluid. There is no wholly masculine man, no purely feminine woman."-Margaret Fuller-

There's something interesting when recently I read about Androgyny on May 2010 issue of AMICA Indonesia Magazine . As it is written there, Androgyny is from the word Andro which means a Man, and the word Gyn which means a Woman. So, you can say that Androgyny means Man united with Woman. Like, Masculine together with Feminine.
In fashion world, Androgyny is trending among the fashion lovers, celebrities and model, such as Agyness Deyn, Elly Jackson (from La Roux duo), Bill Kaulitz (from Tokio Hotel), Janet Jackson, Tilda Swinton and other.
I think this Androgyny style is so good, so that it can make no distinction between man or woman, because we always live in the world full of the distinction about the gender issue.
I made some of Androgyny fashion style in Looklet. Here are female that adapting a masculine style of a man into her own style..





And here are few of Elly Jackson's type of Androgyny
