The kaleidoscope is shaken, the results scrutinised and fashion’s votaries decree that this summer men will be wearing… girly stuff, basically. Hot colours, bold patterns, skirts, sequins. Sir Elton has released a hit single in every decade since the 1970s and has cemented his status as a bona fide style icon along the way.

Another strong outfit in 1974, Elton gave his own take on cowboy chic with some dungarees and a mink fur coat - as you do. The novelty glasses came with miniature awnings over each lens and in hindsight, a surprisingly practical way to keep out sunlight - we wonder why this didn't catch on?Elton John performs at an open-air concert in May 1974 in Watford, England. The previous month, “Bennie and the Jets” became John’s second No. 1 hit on the Hot 100.

October 1974 saw Elton John take to the stage wearing enormous specs embellished with an abundance of curly feathers. Taking to the stage at the Hippodrome de Vincennes concert hall, Elton wore a banana yellow blazer and pink specs that would make Barbie proud. None of which really helps you or me to know what we’ll be wearing this summer. “They can’t make me wear any of it!” you say. No, but your wife can. Wedding this summer? It could be a pink linen suit. Jaunty silk scarf or cravat with that? Maybe both.Starting with his Billboard Hot 100 top 40 debut with “Your Song” in 1970, Elton John has not only made an enduring impact on the music industry, but on the fashion world as well. A major contribution to John’s popularity was due to his daring and outside-the-box style. From feathers to sequins and his iconic colorful glasses, John’s clothes captured the attention of the entire world.

A piece of clothing that embodies the style of Elton John: a sequin, velvet Gucci blazer. This look manages to capture his love for sparkles and, of course, Gucci, at the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar party. Elton John photographed London in 2018, wearing a Gucci outfit head to toe.

He told V Magazine: “I’m proud of the part I played in moving eyewear from function to fashion. My eyes needed the functionality, but ‘blowing up’ what could be done with frames and lenses gave me an exciting new way of expressing myself.”
