The dress with a check pattern is part of Gucci’s fall 2020 collection and is expressly intended for men. According to the product description, the climate-friendly “ready-to-wear” garment has a clear political goal.

Accordingly, “this tartan smock in delicate colors reflects the idea of fluidity.” Inspired by the grunge looks of the 1990s, the dress aims to “disrupt the toxic stereotypes that mold masculine gender identity”.
