What Musicians Wear

You want the musicians you like to look good. Right?

So there's "fashion" fashion and then there's music fashion, which is basically a separate league with different rules -- although in some cases players get to move between leagues or play for both.

This is the thread where you can discuss the history of music fashion. Is there a canon? Who's done the most important work? Who's done the most innovative work? This is the thread where we conduct a comprehensive and insightful investigation of popular music's sartorial evolution.

Buckethead as far away from the thread as possible!

Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell, George Clinton, Eddie Hazel, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, and Prince to the thread immediately!

C'mon, folks! Let's start off the early end of this canon with a discussion of Buddy Holly and Little Richard.

No wonder this thread is failing: Minna's started a competing one on ILE!

what music movement has had the best fashion?

madonna!

i have a liking for house music garb, both of the clubbing (daft punk/filter house) and raving (early 90s acieed gear) persuasion - things that you get dressed up in and are expressive but are also meant for movement - skeleton suits do this perfectly.
