Madonna...

Weather you love her or hate her, there’s no denying that she hasn’t influenced fashion icons of the future Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera. The Cone Bra, the punk look, the 80s bling and more recently the tight body suits and fishnets! At least one thing can be said she has no fear!





Material Girl
Recently she has launched her new clothing line with her daughter, Material Girl... I am desperate to go back to New York and see the exclusive collection at Macys, the clothing looks fab!



Gossip Girls Taylor Momsen models for them. She is the perfect choice for their clothing line as its edgy, punky and so on trend!


Madonna and her daughter Lourdes



The sketches!


Cone Bra
Jean-Paul Gaultier designed the iconic cone bra costumes for Madonna's Blond Ambition tour.


Punk
Arms full of bangles, backcombed coloured hair, crucifix – it can only be Madonna in the early to mid-'80s as she made her mark with hits such as 'Holiday' and 'Like A Virgin'.


'80s bling
With the shock of bleach blonde curly hair, Madonna’s 80s look was not one of her most flattering.


Madonna in her more recent look which im not so sure about... possibly dressing a little young for her age!

Mary-Kate and Ashley Inspired Collection

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen...

“Fashion risk-takers Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen picked up Style Icons of the Year honors at the 2010 Elle Style Awards in the British capital…” Elle
I love their edgy thrown own grunge style but sometimes they over do it and end up looking like a goth or a granny!

The Good





The Bad






Developing a grungy, designer look, the pair launched their high-end fashion line, The Row in 2007, and more recently debuted their spin-off line, Elizabeth & James - which they named after their siblings.
The Row
The Row is a luxury apparel and accessories brand. They name came from Savile Row the historical bespoke suit tailors. The idea was to make tailoring in modern everyday basic clothing. The line is all about clean lines and sharp silhouettes.



Elizabeth and James
Elizabeth and James gaps between designer and contemporary fashions. The collections embody an eclectic lifestyle by blending uptown and towntown elements with casual and traditional styles.

Audrey Hepburn...

“I am proud to have been in a business that gives pleasure, creates beauty, and awakens our conscience, arouses compassion, and perhaps most importantly, gives millions a respite from our so violent world.” Audrey Hepburn



The Little Black Dress
Audrey Hepburn made the little black dress famous on the big screen. Women from all over the world use this little closet staple for all occasions, paying homage to Audrey’s unique sense of style. Simplicity is the key for this look and putting bold jewellery with it adds unique sense of style and glam.

The Capri Pants
She made them famous in movies like Sabrina and Funny Face and today women still find them as a wardrobe staple.

The Ballet Flats
Ballet flats were her other classic wardrobe staple and to this day are always a casual favourite.

The Button-down Men’s Shirts
She pulled this look off beautifully. Audrey Hepburn loved feminine clothes, however she knew how to pull off the men’s inspired look flawlessly as well. After her movie Roman Holiday, women everywhere were copying her short haircut, full skirts, cinched waists and men’s inspired button-down shirts.

Kate Moss Inspired Collection

Kate Moss...

Kate Moss is the style icon who made us fall in love with skinny jeans and pumps. I remember thinking never would I wear jeans that tight and pipe thin ugly looking jeans. It was always boot cut or flares that were in fashion. However as soon as the waif looking Kate Moss started wearing them all the time it caught on so much, I now never look twice at a flared jean. Kate is a trendsetter more than a trend follower. She has an original style that is eclectic, in terms of the items she puts together.
The key to the Kate Moss style is the lack of any restriction in the case of color, size or shape. Vintage is an essential element in her wardrobe. Having an old school accessory is a must when creating her thrown on look.
