No one has transformed themselves like Madonna has been able to do. The Michigan-born pop star has had about as many looks as she has records. Her ability to constantly reinvent herself and her music has helped to secure her status as an icon, and she has influenced a generation of copycats. When Madonna exploded onto the music scene in the 80's with her bleached blonde hair, lace bras, fishnet stockings and crucifix jewelry, she gave fans and critics a taste of what was yet to come. The Material Girl has attributed her unapologetic style to losing her mother at an early age. Madonna has been a fashion leader since she became famous in the mid-1980s. As an icon of popular culture, she has set fashion trends and boosted the careers of established as well as up-and-coming designers. She has appeared on numerous fashion-magazine covers and has been a fixture at runway shows around the world. Her chameleon like ability to regularly transform her look has encompassed everything from punk to s-m, hip-hop, geisha, western, and military looks. In short, no one has had more diverse looks than Madonna. |
