| Summary: | The revolution of clothing which originally marked as the gender status of men and
women, now with the Androgynous gender refracts people's understanding of the
value and function of clothing. For most Eastern cultures in the world, especially
in Indonesia, someone whose clothing style does not match their gender will be
considered skeptical, especially for men. The crossdresser Androgyny style in men
is often identified with thick makeup and flashy makeup towards the feminine, now
growing and more blending with a more natural and less flashy look. Through the
power of the popularity of Instagram Celebrities or Celebgram as fashion makers
and distributors which are visually displayed through photo uploads on Instagram
digital social media accounts which are one of the strongest popular social media
in the world today, the concept of crossdresser Androgyny style which is often
misunderstood is expected to be explained and straightened out both in terms of
characteristics, functions, values, and meanings through this research.
The celebgram is selected by using the purposive method will be analyzed as male
celebgram who are active and consistent in their daily lives with a crossdresser
Androgyny style, Jovi Adhiguna, Wisnu Genu, and Andreas Lukita by showing a
sexy, elegant, and attractive style from the use of clothing, make-up, accessories,
and other supporting attributes. This study used qualitative research with the
method of analyzing the visual content of photos. The attributes worn in the photo
indicate the three celebgrams as figures who have the image of crossdresser
Androgyny analyzed using Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotics in triangulation of
icon, indexe, symbol which are then validated by stage of denotation, connotation,
and myth meaning from Roland Barthes. This study aims to determine the visual
attribute factors that support and straighten out the crossdresser Androgyny style
is increasingly away from the masculine image developing in Indonesia through the
representation of Indonesian male celebgrams on Instagram social media.
