Looking at this idea of gender neutral fashion becoming a major trend for the future of fashion I came across a report by Maureen Griswold :http://cargocollective.com/maureengriswold/Binary-Gender-Neutral-Clothing , which breaks down the factors that are feeding into this new trend.

This new approach has also been adopted by brands such as Selfridges who have set up a section where they stock designers who specifically design gender neutral clothing.
