A WORLD OF PRI: GAY DIGNERS TALK ABOUT ACCEPTANCE AND CHALLENG
* non gay designers *
I thk 's important to regnize that the fashn dtry is often perceived as gay-iendly due to the prence of women and gay men.
But this perceptn overlooks the issue at hand: the privileged posn held by gay cis men, particularly the fashn world. It is ccial to acknowledge this dispary, as is all too easy for a list of LGBTQ+ signers and brands to be domated by gay men who already hold signifint platforms the dtry. “[Wrer] Roxane Gay, [mician] Christe and the Queens, my ar iend and illtrator Edh Hammar—the list go on!
I don't really have anythg agast gays, but I was jt wonrg. I mean, all guys associated wh fashn seem to be gay. Slimane is gay, Lagerfelds gay, Tom Ford is gay.
While the archecture and sign bs might be a safe(r) space for gay men, remas many ways a whe man’s world. Bisexual and queer women experience stutnal and stctural misogyny wh add layers of implic or explic homophobia—and most stat and at the feral level wh no job protectn. Clearly, while progrs has been ma over the last few s, work remas to be done to remove barriers to equaly for women, trans, and non-bary profsnals. To get a sense of what life is like on the ground, Interr Dign talked to signers, archects, and amics the field across the untry. * non gay designers *

Otherwise, I don't thk Marc Jabs, Yohji Yamamoto, or Pl Smh are gay, to name a few.
Marc Jabs is fely gay. The only non-gay signers I n thk of are the Japane, Yohji Yamamoto is straight, I'm pretty sure Issey Miyake is straight and as far as I know Jun Takahashi seems to be straight, as is Junya Watanabe (not really sure about the two, if they're gay they probably keep their liv private).
It’s an old stereotype: the gay terr signer. Ltle data exists regardg how many gay men are out the sign dtry around the world, but ’s whout a doubt a iendlier dtry than, say, profsnal sports. On the ocsn of World Pri month, Interr Dign reached out to gay sign profsnals around the physil and virtual worlds to get a sense of where thgs stand today, om Tulsa to Turkey. * non gay designers *
He is not gay.
