Music and fashion have always gone hand-in-hand. You can’t think about Michael Jackson without picturing his famous sequined white glove or Madonna without her cone bra. No one can imagine KISS without their signature face paint and black and silver jumpsuits. The fashion choices of musicians can quickly become a part of their permanent look and their brand. 

There have been many iconic outfit choices musicians are still associated with over the years. These fashion statements have meant more than just signifying whatever phase a musician was going through. Some of them have become tools to tell audiences exactly who that musician is, the kind of music they play, and what they can come to expect.
