Yungblud, the vibrant British rocker, recently opened up to Attitude Magazine about his evolving relationship with fashion, gender expression, and body image.
For Yungblud, whose real name is Dominic Harrison, challenging norms through clothing isn’t a new phenomenon. As he states candidly, “I’ve been wearing a skirt since I were f***ing five!” This lifelong embrace of fluid fashion underscores his belief that clothing should be a tool for self-expression, not confinement.
He emphasizes that his style isn’t about adhering to any specific label or trend but rather about wearing what feels authentic and empowering at any given moment. This resonates with a growing movement that celebrates individuality and rejects rigid gender stereotypes in fashion. Yungblud’s willingness to experiment and push boundaries serves as an inspiration to his fans and beyond, encouraging others to explore their own style without fear of judgment.
Beyond the clothes, Yungblud also touches upon the importance of body positivity. He acknowledges the pressures of the music industry and the constant scrutiny that comes with fame. However, his focus remains on feeling comfortable and confident in his own skin, regardless of societal expectations. This message is particularly powerful for young people navigating their own identities and body image in a world saturated with often unrealistic ideals.
Speaking in the interview, he told Attitude: “Some days I’m still gonna walk out the house with lippy on, but I know for this period in my life, I’m liking looking like a boy for the first time in a long time.”
“I’m actually gonna say I’m pretty proud of myself,” he added. “I’m proud of myself for fucking getting my shit together and building up my strength again.”
“I’ve got this really forward, masculine, sexual aggression that I need to get out, and I can either do that by shagging and partying, or by taking a more centred route,” he added.
Ultimately, Yungblud’s conversation with Attitude highlights the interconnectedness of fashion, identity, and self-acceptance. His journey is a testament to the power of embracing individuality and using personal style as a form of authentic expression. It’s a reminder that clothing can be a source of joy and empowerment, and that true confidence comes from within.
