inspired by: Grace Jones
It was difficult to select just a handful of Grace Jones’ iconic fashion looks for these slides, as there were simply too many to choose from. Achieving success as a fashion model, musician, and actress, Jones’ influence seeps into a wide range of cultural fields.

Her striking androgynous appearance defied beauty standards at the time. However, it wasn’t just her physical attributes that made her an icon for many years to come — her style and fashion choices on red carpets and at various events exhibit her taste for the eclectic and avant-garde.

Often clad in designers such as Issey Miyake and Jean Paul Gaultier, she never feared experimenting with fabrics, colours, and silhouettes. A standout feature in many of her looks are massive hats or scarves that she draped from her head down or used as a hood.
