Rock Style celebrates great musicians who are style and musical innovators, and have
influenced the look and attitude of millions worldwide. From The Rolling Stones, The
Beatles and Elvis Presley to Debbie Harry, the Ramones and Madonna, Rock Style features
iconic images of musicians captured by the leading music photographers of their respective
eras.



Additionally, contemporary street artist, graphic designer and illustrator Shepard
Fairey has created specially-commissioned portraits of David Bowie, George Harrison,
Deborah Harry, Jimi Hendrix, Joey Ramone and Sid Vicious for the exhibition.



The exhibition is inspired by the book Rock Style, originally published by Tommy
Hilfiger and music journalist Anthony Decurtis in 2000. Drawing on an assembly of
brilliant, many rarely seen images from rock's best photographers, the book illustrates
how fashion has embodied the soul of the rock generation. Coinciding with the 30th
anniversary of the Tommy Hilfiger brand, this exhibition celebrates the dialogue between
fashion, music and photography, documenting self-styled icons for whom clothing formed a
central part of their identity as artists.
