A Guy’s Take On Female Fashion, Red Carpet Edition

Welcome to another edition of “A Guy’s Take On Female Fashion”. This is my third installment in the series and it’s a very special edition since we’re going to cover red carpet fashion!

Now, in case you haven’t read any of my previous articles on female fashion, I care about red carpet fashion as much as I care about the latest female fashion trends in general (that is, I couldn’t care less). Still, since Sabrina and I run this site together, we think it’s fitting that we keep things balanced by providing perspectives on female fashion from both of our points of view.

If you love red carpet fashion, then you will probably hate my opinion. Let’s get into it.

A Guy’s Take On Female Fashion, Part 2

Before the first “A Guy’s Take On Female Fashion” went live, I was a little unsure as to how it would be received. I mean, as I said in my first post, I could honestly care less about female fashion.

That’s not to say that what a woman wears doesn’t make a difference to me. It makes a huge difference – it’s just that I don’t care about “female fashion” as a concept. Sabrina knew this and said I should do it anyway (I guess she was tired of listening to me insult some of fashion’s current “sacred cows”…)

So we went ahead and posted the article. Not everyone liked my viewpoint, but the article got a great response overall so we decided to keep it going. Plus, I didn’t get crucified by the ANM audience so that was encouraging too.

Let’s take a look at this edition’s picks…

A Guy’s Take On Female Fashion

When Sabrina and I started A New Mode, I would joke about how I could care less about female fashion and yet we were starting a fashion site. Truth is, I still don’t care… but now that the site is almost a year old, I am at least familiar with what women are wearing.

Every so often I’ll be working on a collage for the site and I’ll start talking to Sabrina about the things that the celebrities are wearing with my offensively male opinion. Now she’ll probably regret it, but Sabrina picked out a few looks that girls would consider fashionable or ‘trendy’ and asked me to provide some commentary.

I warned her that I was going to be honest. So before I begin, let’s just be clear: half of these things I would never notice, but since I’m writing this article I looked extra close. I just didn’t want any women to be confused and think that guys actually care about female fashion.
