Jason Smith explains why he wear skirts.
Jaden Smith is Nylon magazine’s cover star and the actor, model, and philosopher just happens to be the first man ever to cover the magazine alone. While that may not be that impressive, his comments regarding fashion are pretty intriguing.
Nylon discussed with Jaden Smith his decision to wear skirts in everyday life and model them for Louis Vuitton. “So, you know, in five years when a kid goes to school wearing a skirt, he won’t get beat up and kids won’t get mad at him,” Smith told Nylon. “It just doesn’t matter. I’m taking the brunt of it so that later on, my kids and the next generations of kids will all think that certain things are normal that weren’t expected before my time.”
Jaden Smith goes on to describe what it was like to work on set of the Louis Vuitton campaign. “It was lit because we all knew that we were going to impact the culture and change the game and make a difference,” he said.
Smith firmly believes his confidence is necessary to push the culture forward. “The world is going to keep bashing me for whatever I do, and I’m going to keep not caring,” he said. “I’m going to keep doing the same things—I’m going to keep doing more things. I’m going to take most of the blows for my fellow MSFTS (misfits, and also the name of his clothing line).”
