Björk

Very few people in the world have managed to develop such a peculiar style like the Icelandic powerhouse Björk. Her avant garde way of dressing up will go down in history as nothing less than extraordinary, spectacular and inspirational on so many levels. Her clothes tell surreal stories of quirkiness, audacity and wierdness. She’s not afraid to show off her uniqueness through theatrical displays of carefully well thought out outfits that often blend the unexpected with over the top. Through her unusual style, she has managed to become one of those rare artists who’s constantly challenging the boundaries in both music and fashion industry, by imposing her own rules therefore never following trends. So happy birthday Björk and thanks for being the authentic you in a world where everyone wants to be someone else. Here are the top 3 iconic looks we think have put Björk on the fashion map and cemented her status as one of the most impressive individuals of the 90s.

1. REI KAWAKUBO QUIRKY PRINTS

2. THE AMAZING MARJAN PEJOSKI SWAN DRESS

The world is filled with beautiful people, each and every one of them unique in its own ways. Some of them are just looking to blend in the society, while others celebrate and welcome change with open arms. Being different and unique is something a lot of us take for granted, but as your self awareness grows so does the power to define your own rules. And that’s why we would always choose the bold over those who prefer comfort, we would always choose the rebels to those who are afraid and we will always choose those whose definition of happiness is everything but traditional. Björk for us is this amazing, enigmatic, strangely wierd human being who never fails to show us how beautiful different is and we adore her for it. If there’s one thing you can take from this renowned music star is to always strive for greatness and don’t be afraid of who you are.
