Boys Don’t Cry is an ode to the fluidity of contemporary masculine identity
Featuring clothes from the likes of JW Anderson, Rick Owens, and Craig Green, the V&A’s upcoming exhibition,hopes to redefine the very notion of gendered clothing. “Masculine fashion is enjoying a period of unprecedented creativity,” say co-curators Claire Wilcox and Rosalind McKever. “Rather than a linear or definitive history, this is a journey across time and gender. This will be a celebration of the masculine wardrobe, and everyone is invited to join in.
Plus, the exhibition’s scope is not just limited to the four walls of the gallery – today, Nowness released a fashion film, titled, to accompany the landmark show. Directed by Quentin Jones, the black-and-white film features dancers Ed Munro, Abu Bakar, José Lapaz-Rodríguez, and Carl Ponce Cubero combining jazz, ballet, and vogue femme movements all while wearing a series of extravagant, sometimes genderfluid ensembles.
The title of the film – an old-fashioned phrase immortalised in The Cure’s angsty 1980 song, Hillary Swank’s 1991 film, and Frank Ocean’s 2016 magazine, all of the same name – is turned on its head here; as is the meaning of ‘menswear’ in the V&A’s exhibition,is at the V&A from 19 March 2022.
