Straight Fashion Designer?
I was just wondering if one has to be either a female or a gay male to be a fashion designer.
I have never encountered a straight male fashion designer, and I'm curious to know if it's a criteria.
Perhaps I'm wrong. Prove me wrong, but I've never seen otherwise.

The only one off the top of my queer head is Calvin Klein - notoriously out in the 80s in the Key West gay community -- but then married and totally denied any gay involvement. But then again, does anyone even "wear" Calvin Klein stuff anymore?

Oscar de la Renta seems to be straight.
