The Dressy Androgynous Look

Definition of Androgynous as used in fashion

As a ‘look’ of a female resembling a male। Popularized by actress Diane Keaton in the 1970's movie Annie Hall, and copied as fashion apparel. Kate Bosworth and Amanda Peet recently went androgynous at New York Fashion Week.

The androgynous look is a fun way to dress for work if your dress code forbids denim. You won’t need to go all out to pull the look off as single elements of the trend will be just as effective.

If you are fed up with the limited choice of style clothing that are available on the market for women that want to feel individual, sexy and look a class act without being the same as everyone else? Then have a browse at our samples on our site?

We are new and trying to establish a trend that has slowly diminished from all women the choice to find clothes that are very smart and well cut, but available to fit and compliment you, when using our european clothes measurement size chart?

Vanity Clothing Shops

Vanity sizing is a retailer or designer’s way of making you feel better about yourself by putting a smaller size on the label than you actually are. So no, it’s not you who has shrunk, it’s the label that is lying. Vanity sizing is a device used by shops to sell more clothes, and to create loyalty so you keep coming back to them.

It is a practice so widespread throughout the fashion industry that most shoppers accept that negotiating size inconsistencies between stores is built in to the shopping experience. Just over 60 per cent of women admit they are unsure of their dress size, such is the variation from store to store, according to results from a three-year survey conducted by SizeUK, a collaboration between the government, 17 major British retailers and leading academics and technology companies.

Over the past few years the practice of vanity sizing has sparked a raging debate in this country over women dieting to fit certain dress sizes – think zero, and double zero. "Vanity sizing is all about making women feel thinner than they are. We want to wear brands that flatter us.

We have stocked size zero, or UK size 4 clothes at Browns," says the store’s fashion director Yasmin Sewell, "and we sell them to petite women. We also work with several celebrity stylists who practice vanity sizing to keep their A-list clients happy. They will cut out a size 14 label and sew in a size ten label. It’s the same thing." Designer labels vanity-size too, for different reasons: their own vanity.

Have you ever wondered why designer labels do not offer clothes above a size 14? "Designers size their clothes meanly because they want to keep big people out of them. Having fat people wear your clothes is not good for a brand’s image. It’s a fact of life," says Brix Smith-Start, former guitarist with the Fall and owner/buyer of Shoreditch designer boutique Start. "Miu Miu, for example, is very mean on its sizing.


Its size 10 is smaller than Chloe’s size 10. Miu Miu doesn’t want heavier people wearing its stuff because beautiful people perpetuate the myth that only beautiful people wear the clothes. If you are curvy and have a large bottom – forget it." Even outsize retailer Evans practices a form of vanity labeling. Look inside the clothes and you won’t find the word Evans on the label, just an anonymous logo. Even big women don’t want their clothes to tell them they are big.


According to the designers spoken to for this story, labeling clothes as smaller than its actual measurement is intentional. "Most high street stores vanity-size," says one high-street designer. "It’s endemic, but we do it to make customers feel good about them." In the case of designer jeans, on a visit to Selfridges’ denim department, one woman looking for the perfect pair found that every single brand tried was, when tape-measured, incorrectly sized.


The worst offender was a pair of 26in-waist Rock & Republic jeans that actually measured up as a 33.5in waist – a difference of 7.5in. Nonetheless, our tester was ecstatic to have a pair of 26in waist jeans on, even if she in fact has a 31in waist. Every other jean label measured, from Cavalli to Diesel, had some discrepancy from size to true measurement.


If you’re wondering how stores can get away with this, the answer is easy. Put simply, clothing sizes in this country are not and never have been standardized – so, strictly speaking, definitive dress sizes don’t actually exist. This may change next year if the European Union succeeds in introducing a universal sizing system which will state measurements in centimetres – but right now retailers can put pretty much any size they think is relevant on the label of their clothes.


So, sizes don’t exist as such. But herein lies the problem. Size does exist – in our minds. We base our perceived dress size on the only official data readily available on women’s clothes sizing , which is so out of date – a mass measure in 1952 – as to be risible. Yet it is the results from this survey relating a bust, waist and hip measurement to a specific dress size – a 12 was decreed to be a 34-26-36 (my size today, incidentally) in 1952 – that most British women have locked into their heads as the "truth".


The upshot of this is that sizes 8, 10 and 12 are seen as inspirational and 14 and above as "bad". Rationally (but who is rational about weight?) this is rubbish. What we should be aiming for are clothes that look good on the body. Damn the size.


But it doesn’t work like that. The most up-to-date data on the real size of the nation is available from Size UK. In 2004 Size UK delivered the results of the first national survey on the shape of the British nation since the Fifties. The data from this survey conducted using the Body metrics 3D body scanner (the same device that helped our tester to find jeans that fitted at Selfridges) took 130 individual measurements from 11,000 people. The data is, of course, available only to those who can afford it – indeed those who funded it – namely mass-market retailers.


The survey revealed that body shapes and proportions have changed dramatically since the Fifties – and guess what? We’ve all gained weight, with British women adding on average 2.5in around the hips and 6.5in on the waist, and gaining 7lb. The average British woman now measures 39-34-41. There’s no measurement for a definitive size 12 though, or any other size. Questions which city in the UK is fittest? Are northern women fatter than southern? Where are the skinniest women?) These were met with a wall of silence from the SizeUK people.


What Size UK did was to provide measurements of the population according to age and where they live, which could then be tailored by individual stores to suit their customer base. This demography-style sizing provided just the right ammunition to retailers so they could update their size charts and create clothes that satisfy the size and shape of their target customers.


In Europe Spain authorities are now set to abolish their Standard European sizes and move instead to a system whereby garments will list the height, hip, waist and breast measurements. this is an idea floating around in Spain for sometime, but we'd like to know who the worst offenders are when it comes to vanity sizing and who gets it right? Look what store closet to true sizes, and which fall short off the mark? Take a look into the list below?

Vanity sizing in the USA
American waistlines have been growing for decades. Bulging bellies now seem as if they're the rule, not the exception. But, reports CBS News correspondent Kelly Wallace, that doesn't necessarily show in the sizes of clothing, particularly women's wear.

Amid all the controversy surrounding models and whether they're too thin, celebrities are showing up on red carpets wearing size zeroes, even double-zeroes. "Double-zero works for James Bond, but seems insane for us as females!" chuckled Kate White, Cosmopolitan magazine's editor in chief.

Why are the numbers we see on clothes tags shrinking, while Americans are expanding? Wallace compared two pair of Gap khakis, one from 1996, the other from this year. Both are a size two. But the waistline on the more recent pair was two inches wider.

A CBS News producer still wears a size four Jill Stuart skirt from 10 years ago, but when she shops today, she's a zero. It's called "vanity sizing," and White says retailers are doing it because it works. "As a woman," White said, "if you feel like you can shimmy into a size four with one designer, you're not necessarily going to want the size eight with somebody else, so it forces everybody to play the game."

Pam Klein of Parsons the New School for Design showed us two skirts sold now in different stores, both with the same size on the tag. But one's an inch-and-a-half larger. The vanity sizing, she said, enables women to lie to themselves: "You can say, 'I can eat that chocolate and I can be a size six.' "Klein suggested that things might be changing, pointing, for instance, to the Dove ads showcasing women in all different shapes and sizes.

But, she says, until women get more comfortable with the size they actually are, retailers will embrace vanity sizing. "It feels good," Klein observed. "I'd rather be a size 10 then a size 14, and I know that it's the same thing, but when I open the closet in the morning, I'm getting ready and I look at that tag and I'm like, 'Yes. I'm a size 10!' "Designer Stephanie Hirsch, founder of "Inca," said she hasn't down-sized any of her products. A small is still a small. But her customers demanded an extra-small, and she complied.

"And that's become a really big seller for us," Hirsch said, "as opposed to a medium, (which) was always the biggest seller, and now it's extra-small and small." Wallace wondered whether we'll ever get back to reality, the day when, in most stores, the tag matches the actual size of the dress. "I think," White said, "it's going to be a long time." Wallace suggested that to find the right fit women should "suspend your vanity if you can. Try on several different sizes, and objectively decide what looks best."

Black Women Makeup Tips

Top dermatologists advise on tips to preserve your dark skin's smooth, rich tone Forget the old-school stereotypes, like black skin's always oily. There's little about African-American skin that is safely assumed, except that it can be supersensitive — its pigmentation, called melanin, may rebel against the wrong products by developing a discoloration that can stick around for months or years. Take these skin-safe tips to heart. The nation's top dermatologists advise following these rules to preserve your dark skin's smooth, rich tone:


• Stick with a Simple and Safe Skin Care Routine: Cleanse your face daily — as little as once a day if it's dry, up to three times if your goal is to remove excess oil. Gentle treatment is the key for any skin type. Avoid abrasive cleansers or irritating cleansing puffs or loofahs. And use moisturizer only if your face feels dry without it.



• Pick the Best Products for Your Skin Type: Experts' favorites are nothing fancy — pharmacy brands will usually do — but use products designed for your skin type. Favour products for sensitive skin, especially if your skin is dry — products with harsh ingredients such as benzyl peroxide and salicylic acid can wreak havoc on certain skin types. Want to try something new on for size? Go ahead, but use it sparingly at first.



• Protect You from Skin Cancer: Darker skin does provide some protection from the sun's UV rays, but don't count on it alone. Skin cancer is less common, but can be more deadly, in those with darker skin. Begin each day by applying a sunscreen or moisturizer with an SPF 15 to 30. And reapply sun protection often while you're in direct sunlight.



• Mind Your Skin when you’re taking Certain Medications: Many drugs increase sun sensitivity, making it especially important to apply sunscreen or avoid the sun altogether. Among these medications are birth control pills, antibiotics, acne medicines and cancer drugs. But there are many others, too. Ask your doctor if your medicine makes the list.



• Get Help in a Hurry When Your Skin's in Distress: Whether your problem is acne or another condition, it's much easier to prevent problems from lingering if you address them promptly. A trip to the dermatologist might save your skin — and even save you money by preventing you from purchasing panoply of products to wage the battle against the condition.



• Avoid the Common Makeup Mistakes: Match your makeup with your skin tone for a natural look. "Makeup made especially for women of colour has come a long way," says dermatologist Wendy Roberts, M.D., who adds there's nothing wrong with relatively cheap drugstore brands. Have dry skin? Oil-based makeup is best. And for acne-prone, oily skin, water-based is the way to go.



• Seek out a Specialist for Prescription Therapies or Cosmetic Surgery: When you want more advanced skin care than you can apply yourself at home, there are professional treatments that might help both low- and high-tech. Whether you're thinking about a prescription acne drug, facial peel, micro-dermabrasion, laser treatment or other approach, ask around for an expert in treating dark skin. In inexperienced hands, these more complex skin therapies can end up ruining your look rather than rejuvenating it.



Make up tips for Black Women

Black women have a wide variety of skin tones – from lighter to darker and everything in between. And while makeup lines have improved vastly in the last five years, it’s still a tricky undertaking to find the right shade for your skin tone. So finding the right makeup for your personal skin tone can be a tricky thing. If you choose the wrong colour family, you can find yourself with a flat complexion or an ashen look. Only by trial and error, you will find a colour combination that works for you. Here are three simple steps to help you on your way:

1. Pay attention to your undertones. Look beyond your skin’s colour (overtone) to find the undertones that give definition to your features. For instance, rich ebony complexions often have cool undertones (look for colours in the blue family). Brown and caramel complexions may have warmer undertones (look for golden colours). Once you determine which colours are yours, use them as accents – especially around your eyes.

2. Find your colour family – not just what you think is your colour family. You might be surprised at just how off many women are when it comes to an accurate assessment of the colours that work for them. You may need the help of a makeup specialist or a store cosmetic counter. In fact, get a second opinion. And remember that foundation can look very different on your face than in the bottle or on that thumbnail palette, so be sure to test it on your jaw line or on the inside of your wrist to see if it will work for you.

Tip: If your complexion is uneven, you may need two different colours of foundation that can be used together. When spread correctly over the right areas, a two-colour approach can give you the even skin tone you’re looking for.

3. Use blush to contour your cheekbones. Here is one area where less is definitely more – especially if you use a more exotic colour. A simple brush of currant or mauve can really set off and flatter a medium to dark complexion, while a sweep of caramel, honey or apricot can give definition to a medium to light complexion.

Tip: Bronzer can be used as an effective alternative to blush if you have a warmer complexion. Try dusting a light coating over your face, concentrating contoured strokes at your temples and cheekbones.




Something to Think About

When selecting a makeup, colour should not be your only concern. Remember your skin type. If you have normal to oily skin, a water-based liquid foundation and a cream blush may work best for you. On the other hand, normal to dry skin can benefit from an entire line of cream formulas. Secret to Black Skin & Beauty care A good understand of the role of melanin in black skin is important. This includes people from Africa, African Americans, the Caribbean and South Pacific Islands. It's the melanin that gives skin its colour and protects it from sunlight, and also keeps you looking younger for years longer! Black skin care involves the use of quality skin care products that feed your skin, without leaving it feeling oily and dry. Type of skin conditions:

Ashy skin: Ashy skin appears when the skin is starved of moisture and dry. By increasing the oil content in your skin care regime, you can reduce the appearance of ashy skin.If your skin appears ashy, use a creamy cleanser to wash away impurities and dirt, and then rinse away with warm water. To refresh your skin, use a light toner of witch hazel wiped over the face with a damp cotton wool ball. Finally, choose a good quality creamy moisturizer to nourish your dry skin. Apply with your fingertips and gently massage in upward movements. A moisturizer containing cocoa butter works well on most black skins. If you have an oily T-zone, blot excess moisturizer off with a tissue.


Keloids and scars (Keloids is a type of scar which results in an overgrowth of tissue at the site of a healed skin injury): Black skin are more prone to developing Keloids, which is a build-up of scar tissue at the site of a wound or injury. Even pimples can leave a Keloids scar. Try putting Vitamin E cream on spots to help them heal.Hyper pigmentation: This is irregular or dark discoloration of the skin and is often find in African American skin types. Alpha and beta hydroxyl acids and dermabrasion (abrasion sanding) can help control these areas.



Tips: how long to keep make up products for?

Most black women will agree that they keep and use most of their makeup far too long. The truth is; make up does not last forever! And it easily degrades and eventually should not be used anymore to avoid serious skin health problems. Below are some solutions regarding the following agonizing question: How long should I keep using the same make for? Knowing when to throw away old makeup is very important. And, equally important, knowing when to throw away old make up applicators. This will help to eliminate serious bacteria problems that are caused by using contaminated make up.

Foundation Make Up: Do not keep or use liquid base make up foundations for longer than four to six months. Powder make up foundations should not be used for longer than one year.

Blush Make up: Powder blush make up should not be used for longer than one year.

Eye Shadow Make up: Eye shadow make up should not be used for longer than two years.


Tips for Black Sensitive Skin

As we age our skin also ages with wrinkles caused by loss of subcutaneous tissue and years of damage from the sun. We also lose colour from our skin and hair and very often looked faded and drab which makes us feel older. Cosmetics have been used for thousands of years to help women (and even men) look and feel younger, but for those with sensitive skin using cosmetics can be an expensive challenge of trial and error. These tips from dermatologist experts can help you find the best cosmetics for sensitive skin. Choose powder when possible. Powder cosmetics are not only great at removing shine; they have very few preservatives and contain minimal ingredients that can cause skin irritation. This means powder cosmetics are much less likely to cause problems for women with sensitive skin than their liquid counterparts.



1. Avoid waterproof cosmetics. While waterproof cosmetics, such as mascara, are great for tearful moments, they require a solvent to remove them that also removes sebum, the oily substance made by the sebaceous glands in the skin. Without this oily barrier, skin is exposed to potential irritants that can cause a beauty breakout.

2. Throw out old cosmetics. "Women should keep track of cosmetic expiration dates. They should throw away items that have passed their expiry date". Old make up products may have spoiled or become contaminated, a particularly important point when it comes to eye products." A few standard product life spans include: one year for foundation and lipstick; three-to-four months for mascara; and two years for powder and shadows. It is also important to wash make-up brushes and sponges regularly since they can harbour dirt and germs that will aggravate sensitive skin.

3. Use black-colour eyeliner and mascara products. Women with sensitive skin will find that dramatic black is best when it comes to eyeliner and mascara product colours. Dermatologists feel that black is the least allergenic of all colorants.Stick to earth-toned eye shadows. Lighter earth tones, such as tan, cream, white or beige, seem to cause less upper-eyelid irritation in women with sensitive or itchy eyes. "It is possible that the higher concentration of pigments in darker colours like navy blue can cause an adverse reaction in women with sensitive skin".

4. Use pencil eyeliner and eyebrow fillers. According to dermatologists, "Pencil eyeliner and eyebrow pencils are wax-based and contain pigment and minimal preservatives. They are much less likely to cause problems than liquid eyeliners that contain latex and may cause problems in latex-sensitive individuals." The pencil forms of these cosmetics are also water removable, making them easier on the surface of the skin.

5. Check sunscreen ingredients. Dermatologists recommend daily use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) 15 or higher. For women with sensitive skin, this sunscreen should only contain the physical sunscreen ingredients zinc oxide or titanium dioxide. Unlike chemical sunscreen agents that absorb UV rays, it is impossible to be allergic to physical sunscreen ingredients since they deflect the rays rather than absorb them.

6. Use products that contain no more than 10 ingredients. Simply stated, the fewer ingredients in a product, the less likely it is that the product will cause a problem.

7. Avoid nail polishes. In addition to being easily smudged and chipped, wet nail polish can be transferred to a person's eyes and face before it dries. This casual transfer can cause problems for women with sensitive skin if they find the polish irritating or have an allergic reaction to any of the components of the polish.

8. Use foundations based on silicone. While powder is preferred to protect sensitive skin, women choosing a liquid foundation should look for one with a silicone base. Liquid facial foundations based on silicone do not cause acne, and silicone has a very low incidence of skin irritation.
