From Prince and Annie Lennox to CK One's androgyny campaign, blurring gender boundaries has often been a favourite pastime of many a fashion designer and rocker.

As transgender issues have become increasingly adddressed in our city, even Vancouver designers have gotten into the genderless game, with the likes of Kimberley Parker's Cavell and Sofia Fiorentino's No Paradigm.

British department store Selfridges, which launched its in-store unisex Agender space, is also raising awareness of gender fluidity with a new video.

Devonté Hynes and Neneh Cherry teamed up for an innovative song "He She Me", with an accompanying one-take video that features gender-fluid models, dancers, and performers wearing clothes from Agender brands.

Agender designers include Jean Paul Gauthier, Yang Li, Dries Van Noten, and Comme Des Garçons.
