S2 Ep6: Handsome

<p>Ana and Stevie contemplate handsomeness when it comes to getting dressed. It's a word so often associated with conventionally good-looking men, but why should it be? Together with two special guests, they consider handsomeness as a descriptor to be claimed regardless of where one is on the gender spectrum.</p> <p>Georgeous Michael talks us through transformational accoutrements, while Dazed Fashion Editor Emma Hope Allwood contemplates Le Smoking and handsome women in art. </p> <p>An array of voices discuss their favourite season for dressing in, and there's also talk of ascribing certain items of clothing as 'masculine' or 'feminine'. Do we still need to do that in 2019? Stevie and Ana try to figure it all out. </p> <p>You can follow Emma Hope Allwood on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/@emmahopeall">@emmahopeall</a></p> <p>Georgeous Michael is on Instagram at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/georgeousmichael/">@georgeousmichael</a></p> <p>Layers is produced by Lucy Dearlove <a href="https://lucydearlove.com/">https://lucydearlove.com/</a></p> <p>Follow Layers on Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/layers.podcast/">https://instagram.com/layers.podcast</a></p> <p>Music: E's Jammy Jams - Arabian Sand (via YouTube Music Library), Kevin MacLeod - Aurea Carmina, Kevin MacLeod - Hard Boiled, Aaron Liebermann - Gypsy Stroll (via YouTube Music Library)</p>
