oh patrick wolf is a good one; i saw him play a couple of months ago and he wore this amazing squid-like plastic crown and a barechest and tons of glitter.
so genius.

and SHSH, completely agree with you; those two are pretty much my favourite guys in terms of style.

I've thought really hard trying to determine who my real style/fashion icons are as I tend to feel very affected by people who actually create style rather than carry it for the most part.. I don't know if there's any sense or higher/lesser validity in any of the two as dressing for yourself is be purely personal whereas the job of a stylist is often affected by external elements (publications, trends, etc) and certainly bound to end up on a page/window rather than on their own body, but I guess it's their vision what I respect and what I feel drawn to the most.. they definitely don't affect me in a way that I feel like immitating them in some degree.. because there's little I can immitate , but I do see them as an obsessive force that is both inspiring and liberating to look up to.. so.. in that department, Panos Yiapanis would be very much my icon to follow.. I love everything that he touches, how personal and consistent he is to his own ideas and obviously the traces of poetry in his work..

panos' highlights:

on the other hand, speaking of people who actually wear their ideas.. Charlotte Rampling is the only person I can think of at the moment.. every one of her pictures.. from those in her late teens to those in her 60s.. they're very much a class act and an example of dressing (or undressing!) with dignity, and aging gracefully, too.

I know it's very cliche, but I adore Mary-Kate Olsen and Nicole Richie for my every-day looks. For my eccentric moods, I admire Raquel Reed for her versatile style, attention to color and that "!!!!" factor.

My style icon is David Beckham. Because he wears a pair a jeans every single day with the exact same belt 'n' shoes and he wears them with confidence as if he was wearing a suit.

I like his taste because he likes clothes that look like they have been worn in. Hence why he wears the same belt and shoes with a pair of distressed jeans 80% of the time.

The absolute BEST thing about David Beckham is that he is never over dressed and never underdressed. And he sure knows how to wear a suit.

Oh I adore Charlotte. I'll add Julie Christie, another English beauty She lives by her own terms, and is still beautiful.

They are not icons but more like inspirations from which I stem my personal style from.

My main style icon would probably be a girl i was friends with at uni and that now lives in London. She taught me everything i know about style just from watching what she wore.

then probably: French actresses and fashion editors, Street style found by people watching, Erin wasson, Kate Moss, Drew Barrymore's 90's film characters
