LOCATION MANAGER ENMI YANG. EDITORIAL ASSISTANT ASHLEY COLEY. CREDITS MEGHAN WEST. I n 1975, Helmut Newton boldly took the notion of androgyny and translated it into pure, sexualized fashion. His iconic portfolio of images for Vogue Paris starred a model teetering on the edges of masculinity and femininity. She was, of course, wearing Yves Saint Laurent's iconic Le Smoking — still an emblem of the rejection of traditional dress for women and a nod toward gender obscurity. Today, the lines between masculine and feminine are blurred more than ever: Men and women share the runway, and high fashion has embraced dressing in unisex. That master Newton was light years ahead of his time, for it is a bright new world in which we live now. And so it is that we have redefined fashionable androgyny — with a few cues from glam-rock icons Mick Jagger and David Bowie, whose lightly effeminate and costumed on-stage alter egos are imprinted in entertainment legend forever. Here, what might happen should a streetwear-style Ziggy Stardust take to the streets of Manhattan.
