藏起脚踝过冬吧：“男人味脚踝”这季不流行啦！

上一季，大街上随处可见时髦男士挽起长裤，露出他们的“mankle（男人味脚踝）”。但是这一季，伦敦最in的设计师告诉你，是时候藏起脚踝，穿上“宣言袜（statement socks）”了。

It has been perhaps the most controversial - and maligned - men's styling trend of the twenty-teens. Simply a few centimetres of skin on show between hemline and shoe, the mankle has come to signify membership of a certain tribe (fashion aware, possibly a fan of Wes Anderson).

这可能是最具争议也是遭受最多诋毁的二十多岁男性的时尚趋势：在裤脚处和脚之间留出几厘米余地，展示裸露的肌肤。露出这种“男人味脚踝”成为了加入某个特定品味群体（有时尚触觉，很可能是韦斯•安德森的粉丝）的象征。

To the wider world, the mankle has often been a source of derision, a signal of affectation - a sign the wearer is making too much of effort, rather than simply getting dressed.

但是，对更多人来说，“男人味脚踝”常常成为笑柄，是过于造作的标志，表明穿衣人过于努力想表现，而不是简单地把衣服穿好。

But at the latest round of menswear catwalk shows - London Collections: Men, currently taking place in the capital - something is afoot. Mankle flesh is nowhere to be seen. Though trousers are often cropped, the ankles underneath have so far been clothed, by ankle boots or statement socks.

不过，最新一季伦敦男装秀场上，男人们又把脚踝给藏起来了，性感的“男人味脚踝”不见了。虽然裤子常常还是七分长，脚踝处都被遮住了，要么是套上了及踝的短靴，要么是穿上了“宣言袜”。

The statement sock—whether distinguished by a bright hue or a bold pattern or both at the same time—has become the go-to fashion accessory for guys from Wall Street to Silicon Valley.

宣言袜的显著特点是色彩鲜艳或图案醒目，或两者兼具，这种袜子成为从华尔街风靡到硅谷的时尚配件。

Statement socks are like a stylish man's best kept secret; they represent a level of personal care and sartorial interest that deserves nothing but respect, says GQ.

《GQ》杂志称，宣言袜就像时尚男士守护的最好的秘密，它代表了个人日常护理的水平和一种反讽的趣味，值得我们尊重。
