In
Ireland, where women aren't outwardly oppressed, the societal norms
and government implement sets of rules to lead the male gender above
the female gender. In recent news, fashion shows have been arguing
the norm and having collaborative catwalks for males and females to
walk together, regardless of the gender the clothes are “meant”
for. Brands like Prada, Armani, Saint Laurent, and Moschino all
shared his idea of including men and women on stage at the same time.
It was even noted that Prada Milan herself stated that she was having
the genders share the stage to “create an opportunity to measure
what genders share and what they take from each other” (Irish
Examiner, 2015). rguing the

genders mix while up on stage is an amazing statement that challenges
the binary system as a whole. Ireland has taken one step towards
equal rights for men and women by implementing these fashion shows.
