【Thailand】

This is ThailandOde To..., a weekly column where we share the stuff we're really into in hopes that you'll be really into it, too.

It used to be that lesbians had the worst possible reputation when it came to fashion. Think: oversize flannels, endangered animal T-shirts, beige-on-beige, Polartec socks.

Little attention was paid to the proud and numerous exceptions to the rule. Thankfully, we now have Instagram account @EveryLesbianAndTheirFashion, which documents queer and queer-adjacent celebrities looking hawt and fashionable. It's a gift to these tired eyes.

The account nominally provides "daily fashion inspo for and from lesbians." I'd argue that Katherine Moenning (of The L Wordfame's) vest-and-chains combo isn't so much "inspo" as it is, "Warning to lesbians everywhere: Please, don't do this."

Whether inspiration or admonition, this content is rich. The photos are mostly from a not-far-off lesbian past mixed with a few images from our queer present. Most of the women featured are queer, and the remainder are heterosexual women whose presentations are so gender-fluid that they...almostcount as queer.

"I think lesbian and queer women have an amazing sense of style and they need to take over the (fashion) world asap," the account's founder, Marloes, told Mashable. "Queer women are ready to break boundaries to dress and look as they like. If we would like to wear a nice suit, we will. And if we would like to wear a dungarees, a rainbow dress, a moustache, a bow-tie, purple earrings, or a checkered blouse we will. And if we want to cut of all of our hair we will! It's so important to break those stereotypes society created and we as queer women are strong and can do this. "

The account is a beautiful antidote to the dated stereotypes about lesbian fashion. We queer women are so much more than relaxed-fit denim and clay-bead necklaces.

Here's the best of the best:

I stan, you stan, we all stan for Sex and the City-era Cynthia Nixon (as Miranda Hobbes).

Almost too much queer for one photo: Jodie Foster and Kristen Stewart from the Panic Room.

Okay, so she murdered a ton of people. But who didn't have a thing for Snoop (played by Felicia Pearson) – or at least her oversize tees – back in The Wire days?

Thank you Ellen Page for standing up for purple.

Patricia Highsmith of The Price of Salt fame is a lewk. She looks both cool and incredibly mean, but in a hot way.

Darlene Conner of Roseanne (played by Sara Gilbert) was the grunge queer-adjacent teen the closeted tweens of the '90s needed. Just look at that tucked-in flannel.

And it wouldn't be a queer fashion account without a nod to the not-technically-queer Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who rocks the butch security guard aesthetic like no one else.
