When Amelia Earheart started flying planes, people were wondering what she could possibly wear up in the air. And she would just casually say to them that she is wearing trousers. As radical as that may be in that era, but those “trousers” that women wear were once frowned upon have now become a fashion statement. That was in the 1930’s.
It’s now 2015 and yet, straight men wearing women’s clothes are still not accepted in the society. Unless you are homosexual or transexual, people would actually raise their eyebrows if they see a “manly” guy wear women’s clothing. They may even get ostracized for even talking about it. But of course, times have and will change. Maybe, not that fast, but, it will!
Enter Homme Mystere, a fashion line of lingerie for men! Yes, you read it right. They are made to fit men’s curves. As crazy and unbelievable as it may seem, there is actually a demand for these lingeries. According to Fusion, most of their customers are from Europe, Russia, Canada, the U.S. and even Japan. Most of their customers are over the age of 40, and are in heterosexual relationships.
Homme Mystere is an Australian company that was launched in 2008. Co-created by Brent and Lara Krause, Homme Mystere was founded to meet the demand for sexy lingerie for men, according to the Daily Mail. At that time, men were only limited to tidy-whities. Now, thanks to their creations, there is now a limitless range of underwear for men. Think Victoria’s Secret for men!
Now the question is, will this era accept the fact that straight men can now already wear women’s lingerie like wearing trousers during Emilia Earheart’s time? That is only for us to find out in the future. For now, their website says “discreet international shipping”.
So, ladies, would you allow your partner to wear these lacey lingeries for men?
