Color is color. Shapes are shapes. Yes, we dictate that some items are inherently more masculine or feminine than others. Girls wear dresses more often than men. Men wear suits and the like.
However, taste- and putting together these shapes and colors in a way that is classy, flowing and not an eyesore, is not a gendered thing.
If a man is wearing an olive coat with- I don't know. Bright magenta paisley slacks or something, it lacks fashion and taste because those are the wrong colors and it's not done well.
A woman in the same colors and patterns would look just as awful.
Stop thinking about WHAT the item is, in terms of clothing (a dress, a shirt, pants, whatever) and start looking at it in terms of shape, color, and placement.
The kind of class you're talking about is just people who know how to put their shit together because they've mastered this sort of thing, and not the other way around.
Color is color. Shapes are shapes. That is literally the basis of all visual art. We put colors and shapes together in a way that makes sense and that, my dear, is all there is to it.
Are you satisfied?
