Harry Styles called out people slating his recent Vogue cover in a new Variety interview and on Instagram.

Harry Styles has responded to Candace Owens and all the people criticising him for wearing a dress on the cover of Vogue.

Last month (Nov 13), Harry Styles broke the internet after he became the first man ever to appear on the cover of American Vogue alone. Harry wore a Gucci dress in the photo and he spoke in the interview about his love of women's clothing. For the most part, people praised the image, however, there were a few loud trolls who were upset by Harry's appearance.

Notably, conservative commentator Candace Owens accused Harry of 'destroying masculinity' and now he's addressed it.

Tweeting about Harry's historic US Vogue cover, Candace tweeted: "There is no society that can survive without strong men. The East knows this. In the West, the steady feminization of our men at the same time that Marxism is being taught to our children is not a coincidence. It is an outright attack. Bring back manly men." Um, okay hun.

Speaking about the backlash in a new Variety interview, Harry said: "To not wear [something] because it’s females’ clothing, you shut out a whole world of great clothes. And I think what’s exciting about right now is you can wear what you like. It doesn’t have to be X or Y. Those lines are becoming more and more blurred."

If that weren't iconic enough, Harry posted a photo from his Variety photo shoot on his Instagram page with the caption: "Bring back manly men." In the photo, Harry is wearing a pastel blue suit with ruffle detailing.
