“What do women have to wear? How should men dress? That’s not something I’m interested in. If I see a nice shirt and someone says, “This shirt is for women,” I think, “Okay, but that doesn’t make me want to wear it any less.”
Although still facing many mixed opinions, undeniably, Harry Styles is one of the most influential fashion icons today.
