Here's the full story...
This week, all anyone can talk about is Harry Style's Vogue U.S. cover shoot.
The former One Direction band member graced the cover for the prestigious fashion magazine's December edition, and he did it spectacularly.Now, it's no secret that Harry has become more expressive with his fashion choices in the last year...
With him regularly donning more feminine outfits and looks.And this month, he's brought his quirky style to the cover of Vogue.
Yep, Harry has become the first man to feature on the cover of Vogue U.S in 127 years, and he wore a series of dresses and skirts to commemorate it.It's needless to say that most people are loving Harry in a dress...

Here he is, in all his glory.
As well as pose in dresses and skirts, Harry also partook in a lengthy interview, wherein he discussed his stance on the stereotypes surrounding clothing and fashion choices.The "Watermelon Sugar" singer discussed his mission to "de-gender" certain items of clothing.
In his interview with the fashion publication, he said: "Clothes are there to have fun with and experiment with and play with. What’s really exciting is that all of these lines are just kind of crumbling away. When you take away ‘There’s clothes for men and there’s clothes for women,’ once you remove any barriers, obviously you open up the arena in which you can play."He continued:
"I’ll go to shops sometimes, and I just find myself looking at the women’s clothes thinking they’re amazing. It’s like anything—anytime you’re putting barriers up in your own life, you’re just limiting yourself. There’s so much joy to be had in playing with clothes. I’ve never really thought too much about what it means - it just becomes this extended part of creating something."Harry admitted that "dress up" was a big part of his childhood.
“As a kid, I definitely liked fancy dress," he explained. “I was really young, and I wore tights for that [school play]. I remember it was crazy to me that I was wearing a pair of tights. And that was maybe where it all kicked off!"However, despite the overwhelmingly warm reception to Harry's photoshoot, not everybody is too impressed...
And, by everybody, I mainly mean the right-wing author, Candace Owens.The controversial figure savagely slammed Harry on Twitter yesterday...
And begged for the world to "bring back manly men."Here's what she said.
