There is no doubting that Amy Winehouse was followed not just for the music she made, but for her amazingly free-spirited fashion sense too! With her toweing beehive, exaggerated eyeliner, misscellany of tattoos and body artand obvious dedication to 60's style clothing, Amy Winehouse inspired more than just Haloween costumes, and will continue to do so. There is no denying that, in tandem with her career, the late Winehouse's style was retro, distinctive and utterly rock n roll.
Interestingly, Amy's sense of dress, as the voice she was bestowed with, reflected the free spirited individual she was and will continued to be remembered as. Some liked her and some obviously didn't.... and likewise it was for her style sense. But hey, it has to be said that she was, unlike many others, original. So many musicians draw their muses from the past, but not Amy! She made this look her own, imperfections and all, left now for legions of music and fashion fans to follow.
With her beehive being a hit with designers such as Chanel's Karl Lagerfeld, and her tracks also proving to be runway favorites, its not understatement that she was as important to the fashion world as fashion was to her. She liked dressing ;'easy'; white tank yop, denims and converse shoes being her most favoued attire whiel performing... but the simplicity of that, coupled with her exagerrated make-up, made Amy Winehouse larger than life.
Not that it hasn't been the 'in' trend for the past few years, but i'm predicting the Amy Winehouse look will be bigger than ever before this halloween! Oh, and i'm also predicting eyeliner and red nailpolish sales will be skyrocketing in the next few days!
