Virago - Women

Description

Fashion trench jacket from Yvette LIBBY N’guyen Paris A coolest bold lady. A virago is a woman who demonstrates exemplary and heroic qualities. Historically, the concept of a virago reaches back into antiquity where Hellenistic philosophy asserted that elite and exceptionally heroic men had virtus. Virtus defined the traits of excellence for a man in ancient Rome (and Greece), including valor and heroism, but also morality and physical strength. Women and non-elite or unheroic men (slaves, servants, craftsmen, merchants) were considered a lesser category, and believed to be less excellent in Roman morality. A woman, however, if exceptional enough could earn the title virago. In doing so, she surpassed the expectations for what was believed possible for her gender, and embodied masculine-like aggression and/or excellence. Virago, then, was a title of respect and admiration. Designer Style ID: YLNSS20CONTEMP008W Colour: Black (Pantone - Black 6C) Designed in France - Made in Vietnam Composition: 1. Outer: Parachute 2.
