By Andi Allen If you’re interested in iconic London fashion and how it has shaped so many of our lives,  I’d highly recommend going to see 'Outlaws: Fashion Renegades of 80s London' at the Fashion and Textile Museum (ends 6th March 2025). I had the pleasure of taking my 14-year-old daughter, Yvie, recently, and she absolutely loved it! Experiencing it through her eyes made it even more special. I’ve added the link below so you can check it out for yourself. Wow! That was the only word I could muster as I wandered through the exhibition. Nostalgia hit me hard—along...

Inspired by the bold, eclectic spirit of the city we love and adore. GFW Style Name: Brighton Edge (or Angle) Cuff with 2 Buttons and an Extra Hole for Cuff Links. A versatile and stylish feature. Why We Love It. Versatile: Wear it your way—buttoned up, with cuff links, or folded back for a stylish touch (especially with a contrast fabric).

By Lisa Honan, co-founder. We launched Gender Free World in February 2016, and since then, we’ve produced over 72 different shirt patterns, 13 designs of boxer shorts, pyjamas, T-shirts, and socks, to name just a few. We’ve made over 15,000 customers happy, and we’re immensely proud of that. In March, we announced we had to pause operations, and at that point, we really thought it was over for good. Our small team was dedicated but we just struggled to achieve the scale needed to sustain the business. Rising costs, supply issues, Brexit, and various challenges meant that this difficult decision was...

Fatboy Slim, international DJ and musician is known for his striking shirts. When he saw our designs he said'yes' and bought 2 shirts straight away.

"Not all bodies fit the binary. Not all clothing should either" Good news! There seems to be a growing number of independent retailers offering a particular style for trans-masc people. At GFW Clothing we’ve partnered with Both&, who specialise in making incredible AFAB masc-presenting clothing for trans men and the trans masculine folk. In their own words, Both& say “You need clothing designed for your body, that creates square shapes and helps you feel gender joy.” We couldn’t have put it better ourselves! Here are some of our best trans-masc clothing tips so you can feel 100% like yourself! Binder-friendly t-shirts...

Ok, let's get it to it, non-binary fashion. Why does society think that your gender should dictate what clothes you wear? How one expresses their self satorially should not be restricted by a person being defined as a man or woman. Clothes may look like a small part of the everyday, but they are one of the most consistent messages that we receive about who we are and who we are not supposed to be and let's face it gender feels like an increasingly over simplified and artificial way of identifying oneself.  Most high street trends today focus on the...

Guest post by Finn Williams "Is that a boy or a girl?" We hear it all the time. So I decided to address a few things non-binary and gender-fluid people are really very bored of hearing. Beware, this article is very blunt, if you're easily offended then I'd say stop reading this article now. A quick note on what is what: Non-binary: Any gender identity that isn't specifically fixed as male or female Gender-fluid: A form of non-binary gender; people may feel specifically male, female and non-binary but they 'flow' between each one naturally. I'm not lumping gender-fluid/non-binary into the...
