+Fashion +Music
For decades, fashion and music have gone hand in hand. The ying and yang of culture, the two art forms have inspired endless creations among their performers, both musician and designer. For many a rockstar, models are muses and so are the clothes themselves. After all, art is a lifestyle, and when it comes down to it, the likes of Bowie, ZZ Top and Elvis would only choose a life in Vogue. So go ahead and strike a pose. Here are some of +Beryll’s favorite fashion + music videos.
David Bowie : Fashion
There’s a brand new talk,
but it’s not very clear
That people from good homes
are talking this year
It’s loud and tasteless
and I’ve heard it before
You shout it while you’re dancing
on the whole dance floor
Oh bop, fashion
The Fanatics : Models
Give me models, give me money.
ZZ Top : Sharp Dressed Man
Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don’t know where I am goin’ to.
Silk suit,black tie,
I don’t need a reason why.
They come runnin’ just as fast as they can
Coz’ every girl’s crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man.
The Kinks : Dedicated Follower of Fashion
They seek him here, they seek him there,
His clothes are loud, but never square.
It will make or break him so he’s got to buy the best,
Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion.
And when he does his little rounds,
Round the boutiques of london town,
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends,
Cause he’s a dedicated follower of fashion.
Kraftwerk : The Model
She’s posing for consumer products now and then
For every camera she gives the best she can
I saw her on the cover of a magazine
Now she’s a big success, I want to meet her again
Simple Minds : Up On The Catwalk
Up on the catwalk, and you dress in waistcoats
And got brilliantino, and friends of Kim Philby
You float through the night time, like manna from heaven
But what, what do I know, and just what do I know
And up on the catwalk, in sweat that glistens
And I don’t know why and I don’t know why
I don’t know why
Right Said Fred : On The Catwalk
And I’m too sexy for your party
Too sexy for your party
No way I’m disco dancing
I’m a model you know what I mean
And I do my little turn on the catwalk
Yeah on the catwalk on the catwalk yeah
I do my little turn on the catwalk
Cake : Short Skirt Long Jacket
I want a girl with the right allocations
Who’s fast and thorough
And sharp as a tack
She’s playing with her jewelry
She’s putting up her hair
She’s touring the facility
And picking up slack
I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnng jacket……
Elvis : Blue Suede Shoes
Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Don’t you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes.
Nancy Sinatra : These Boots are Made for Walking
These boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do
one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you.
Madonna : VOGUE
Strike a pose
Strike a pose
Vogue, vogue, vogue
Vogue, vogue, vogue
Look around everywhere you turn is heartache
It’s everywhere that you go (look around)
You try everything you can to escape
The pain of life that you know (life that you know)
