Connor and Hudson both wore sheer shirts to the Vanity Fair Oscar's after party. I've heard this wasn't planned, but either way it's amazing that it's such different approaches with the brown sheer on Connor being so masculine and highlighting everything about this torso. For Hudson the black is flirty, hiding and giving glimpses. Connor's is showing how sheer clothing and jewelry can be amazingly masc, and Hudson's is classic glam. It's an insane contrast.

HOLY FUCK.

I think my brain just exploded.

I can't say enough about how much I love how these guys are deliberately and delightfully fucking with gender stereotypes, the jewelry, the earrings, the lace, the amazing fashion stuff they participate in with such glee. They got the tattooes, SEX SELLS. They know they are gorgeous and they just play with it, show it off, have fun.

Did you see the lace shirt Williams wore to the pre-Oscar party? Then the all-black suit.

They are just reveling in their star status and I love it. Guh.

I am not kidding at all when I say that long form essays on gender and fashion could be written about this pair of outfits. This is a study in two completely different subversions. Obviously, they have stylists but they are also clearly directing where they want to go with things and also they picked those stylists. They aren't being assigned people like some other rising stars might be handled. They are really owning their rise and fame in a way we don't usually see. It's amazing.

Absolutely. I totally agree with this.

I haven't been glued to their shoots like some people are but with youtube shorts it's easy to find more stuff than I really was actively looking for.... and they totally are choosing all this and molding it with the labels they have been signed with.

It is just wonderful to see, for me -- not only their own confidence and enjoyment of it all, but also the messages they are sending with their gorgeous expensive drag.

Tiffany and Co for Christ's sake. My god.
