I was a little late on being introduced to my newest style icon, Janelle Monae. I first heard of her after her collaboration with Fun. for their song "We Are Young". I fell in love with her modern/classic tuxedo ensembles which she has made her go-to look. She mixes structured suits and feminine accents like ruffled shirts and femme bow-ties. While she does not like to refer to her style as "menswear", she still embraces the androgyny chic look--looking dapper as ever! She completes each of her looks with her signature pompadour which she pulls off effortlessly. It's safe to say I'm a fan--Call it menswear or not, she definatley wears it better than the boys ;)
I'm definately in the market for some tailored menswear inspired looks. I may need to wait on the pompadour though-not sure if it's curly hair friendly :)
Danni/O, Human Holiday!
