Boy George in the 80's.

Boy George's most famous look is this: hat, colourful dreadlocks, loose clothing and subtle yet noticeable make-up  Boy George has always been known for his "out there" sense of style and yet he always kept it classy.The use of black in the outfit and the bagginess of the upper half is evidence of the desire in his face. He wants his face to be known and recognised so he made it into a work of art. Boy George's make-up has always been sleek and "pointed" in the sense that everything was sharp, on point and perfect, the looks he tried always suited him and he made sure they did. Dark lips and colourful eyes were his main focus as portrayed in the musical he wrote: Taboo (following is an extract from)
George: what colour are my eyes Billy? describe them.
Billy: Brilliant Bright Blue
George: (cooing) Thank-you
Billy: No, they're all bloodshot from your mascara
George: BETTER FUCKING NOT BE
George used his eyes as his focal point and made sure they were the central to his face, in many of his music videos, for example, Georges eyes are centre to the camera, this makes the audience focus on Boy George and his music, an effect which worked perfectly and saw him into the charts.



In an interview Boy George said "what you wear has no impact on anything else, people fight because they want to fight not because of what they wear, i think its just silly, fighting over clothes, you only get into violence if you fight back. if you don't want to be involved don't fight back." This shows his true peaceful and harmless approach to clothes and that they really are just something you put on.

Boy George looked amazing as ever at the 2013 Brit Awards with a sheer black hat, baby blue blazer, black shirt, silk black tie and blue eye-shadow with his trademark amazingly styled eyebrows. In My opinion he looked great  (especially after the huge weight loss) but was quickly caught in twitter crossfire with One Direction's Liam Payne after Liam refused to pose for a photo with Boy George's Niece  needless to say directioners were soon on the bandwagon hurling a torrent of abuse at George via his twitter, in a peaceful response, Boy George simply blocked each one of them, a calm move from the star. 

Boy George was and is an icon, in fashion and music. He will always dominate the fashion scene and still has designers using him as an inspiration.
