In 2014, the word feminism seems to come from the past, sufragette and 60s.
But as soon as we remove the superficial idea of "we are now at gender equality" we realize that underneath there is a world still in turmoil. That is not satisfied with the daily equal opportunities, but is concerned to work to reform the image of women.
One above all: Petra Collins, 1992 Start class photographer to shoot at age 15 and became the assistant to Richard Kern, from there it is a short step: Vogue, Vice Magazine, Urban Outfitters and Rookie Magazine. Right here will know Tavi Gevinson, the most precocious fashion blogger of all time. The two share the same philosophy (as well as the same home in New York) but speak different languages.
A photograph, the other fashion.
You start to seriously discuss feminism when Petra draws a t-shirt for American Apparel, the subject a "menstruating-masturbating vagina", from there the scandal. Then the photographer's Instagram account is obscured for a photo in bikini not shaved. The natural beauty that is not understood.
Rookie Magazine, founded by Tavi, becomes a point of reference for a generation: the Millennials.
The duo is joined by Julia Baylis (fashion designer) and Charlotte Kohl (photographer and muse of Petra). Born a real trend normcore made of style, extensive use of all the shades of pink, shades of soft porn and lures 00s years.
New Girls who are influencing the world with their ideas and their style.
Exploring and crossing Instagram images and hashtag we found a niche trend. Selfie of twentysomethings without make up, cool colors alternating pink, metropolitan background. Arvida Bystrom is one of them. Photographer, artist and Swedish model has captured the cybertendenza creating graphic artwork of impact.

New following gushing like waterfall, impulses to follow trends to be set.
A ferment that arises from the generation that grew in 2000, to clear the last recesses of machismo. A revolution made up of images and gestures never too shouted.
Cyberfeminism is among us ... are you part of it?
