ANDROGYNY ALERT

Published: Volume 14, Issue 5, September-October, 2006

Kiran Uttam Ghosh's recent Autumn/Winter '06-'07 showing at Rome Fashion Week brought out the best of yin and yang - fusing femininity with pinstripes, jostling cufflinks with brooches and pairing shirts with saris. A welcome way to break the fashion gender divide

Masculine silhouettes with a twist of the ladylike. This year's androgynous avatars make a refreshing change from last season's frills and flounces. Mix structured tailored outfits like military jackets, waistcoats, over-sized shirtdresses, velvet, tweed and pinstripes with a dash of Victorian ruffles for the perfect dandy look. Charcoal skinny jeans and velvet tuxedo jackets make for perfect options for a night out and a mannish yet fitted tailcoat adds that extra hint of glamour. Take your cue from androgyny experts Kiran Uttam Ghosh, Ashish Soni, Priyadarshini Rao and Narendra Kumar to get the balance just right
