Born Annie Clark, St. Vincent possesses some of the most visually arresting personal style even far as rockers go. The Grammy winner, multi-instrumentalist and gal pal always looks damn good. St. Vincent pairs an ear for off-kilter melodies with a knack for the sartorial reflection of that vision. Boldness is key; you’d be hard pressed to find her in a wallflower’s clothes. Even while clad from head to toe in black, textures are at play. Color, patterns, rich textures and dramatic shapes are how she does it. St. Vincent makes the most of a silhouette; shapely outerwear, tailored goods and re-imagined vintage all play a part. Strong makeup looks temper the style with pops of color in the form of eye shadows and lip colours. Even her hair is part artist’s stroke! Whether a mountainous range of mahogany or a cresting spray of platinum, the hair is quite essential to the look.
St. Vincent and Cara Delevingne were in attendance at Stella McCartney’s Resort 2016 presentation. St. Vincent looked particularily stellar in a vest dress… who knew a vest could be a dress?

St. Vincent opted for all black everything at the premiere of Paper Towns; she was purely an onyx dream.

Pastel suits make for dreamy tailoring in St. Vincent’s profile in Wonderland Magazine. Given the ethereal nature of Clark’s hair, the look becomes sweetly masculine.

Completely obsessed with her curly hair + suit look. #goals
Looking boss rather adorable with curly hair is high witch level achievement.
Love it, very attractive post!
Ooh not the first time I’ve seen a vest dress and I do love them. The first time was some gothy DIY’d thrift thang and the other was a seersucker high end looking deal on a very polished personage.
I love giant 40’s style suit jackets and they’d be the best baseline thing to try to adapt into a vest dress, but I could never cut one up to do it.
Oh wow St. Vincent’s outfit/facial expression in the second photo is giving me life right now. Actually this whole post is tbh![](//s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/9e/06/a0/9e06a01dacbabb244b7772e2a06df6e3.jpg”)
All I want for the rest of my life is to watch this woman look bold and stylish.
