Waves of Officewear


The evolution of male officewear clearly shows the transition from feminine fashions to masculine fashions.

The first wave of male secretaries, administrator and receptionists (circa 2020-2030) wore masculinized versions of female clothing. In particular, while women wore pants exclusively, males also wore pants, but in very masculine styles, such as pantaloons, coulottes, pantalettes, clam diggers, and more commonly shorts, as worn by the boy model above left.

The second wave of male office help (circa 2030-present) only wear masculine fashions, such as skirts and dresses like the boy model above right.
