FASHION LEADERS AND THE STYLES THEY POPULARIZED

STYLES POPULARIZED BY SOME FASHION LEADERS

CINDY CRAWFORD

The denim shorts, tie-front white shirt and silver hoop earrings Cindy Crawford wore in her iconic Super Bowl Pepsi advert in 1992 is arguably her most iconic look. She continued to be one of the most influential fashion icons. Her signature looks included shoulder pads, hair spray and red lipstick.

LADY DIANA

Pie-crust blouses and pastel ruffles whom the press nicknamed “Shy Di,” to the sleek and regal woman whose confident stride in embellished gowns and body-con velvet made her one of the most-photographed women in the world.

MARLENE DIETRICH

Marlene Dietrich popularized trousers for women and began the androgynous style well known today.

THE BEATLES

The Beatles popularized bright colors, and wore paisley suits and shirts and trousers with floral patterns. The Beatles also made Indian-influenced fashions such as collarless shirts and sandals popular.

MADONNA

Whether she is wearing navel-baring miniskirts, cone bras, or Gap jeans, Madonna has been a fashion leader since she became famous in the mid-1980s. Her signature looks include strands of beads, crucifixes and pearls.

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

His exposed collar, bandana, unbuttoned shirt and leather jacket are few of his most iconic looks.

NANCY REAGAN

Reagan brought chic and simple glamour to her first lady wardrobe. Her business looks were predominately Chanel-inspired suits with pussy-bow blouses and her casual wear encapsulated the All-American attitude of her husband's office (simple slacks, button downs, sweaters and the occasional pair of blue jeans).
