Time to say goodbye

We launched Gender Free World in February 2016 and since then have produced over 72 different shirt patterns, 13 designs of boxers shorts, pyjamas, T-Shirts and socks to name a few of our products.

Rising costs, supply issues, Brexit, and various challenges have made this difficult decision unavoidable. We will be closing our physical store...

How do you know if someone is queer?

How do you know if someone is queer?

By Beth Kennedy We’re here, we’re queer...but how can we signal this without saying anything? Queer signalling has been around for decades. In the 70s, LGBTQI+ signalled to one another using a handkerchief system. They would put hankies in their back pocket or their waistbands and each colour signalled a specific sexual preference and specific kinks. There were several variations of the hanky code, so if you’d like to find out more about this slice of LGBTQI+ history, take a look at this great article about flagging (TW: lots of very explicit sexual language).

The Power of Clothing for Self Expression - A personal Journey

The Power of Clothing for Self Expression - A personal Journey

Guest blog by William Elisabeth Cuthbert Dressing for your gender identity can change everything about how you move through life.

How to spot a lesbian...or not!

How to spot a lesbian...or not!

Finding Clothes that suit your Style For great clothes for EVERY body - regardless of sexuality or gender, check out GFW Clothing.   In years gone by, the classic short back and sides was the ultimate way to identify a lesbian - because it was a way of expressing the individual which wasn’t conforming to feminine cultural norms.  But over several decades we’ve seen more diversity with regards to hair length on women, regardless of sexuality. Think of the 80s when Annie Lennox (or just Annie Lennox in general), Grace Jones and Alison Moyet all sported beautiful ‘butch’ haircuts. Or how about...
