Peroxide mop, statement specs, tweed suits and quirky crocs: David Hockney’s genius for fashion

Artist David Hockney is recognized for his distinctive personal fashion style, which has evolved over several decades and includes trademark elements like his round glasses and bleached blonde hair. His fashion journey began early, as seen in a self-portrait at 16, and continued with notable quirks such as wearing yellow Crocs to meet King Charles. Hockney's style, characterized by a bold use of color, rugby shirts, and trenchcoats, has made him a standout figure in the intersection of art and fashion, influencing trends since the 1960s when he adopted his signature peroxide mop.
