A person that is very well know as being highly fashionable • From models and muses to designers and photographers, the world of style has no shortage of superstars. We picked the 100 most influen@al fashion icons Greta Garbo Legendary Swedish actress Garbo popularized a slightly androgynous look-- comfortable, classic, unfussy--that reflected her no-nonsense personality as well. • Coco Chanel gave women the liGle black dress, and Yves Saint Laurent gave them the op@on of leaving it at home. He shocked the world with Le Smoking, a tuxedo smoking jacket for women that carried a whiff of androgyny. • Throughout the ‘40s and ‘50s, he popularized the beatnik look, safari jackets and thigh-high boots • That inclusivity reflected his desire to democraze fashion: he was the first French couturier to sell a ready-to-wear collec@on, lending off-the-peg a much- needed dose of credibility. "If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun” • This actress channeled a decidedly powerful look in the ‘40s, one that eschewed anything girly or fussy in favor of masculine-inspired pieces, like tailored blazers, pleated trousers, and loafers. • She wore the pants. Literally! Neither Hepburn's physique -- tall, slender and boyish -- nor her atude were in line with the bombshell look of the Hollywood age in which she reigned. • Hepburn's style signatures included simple, buGon-down blouses, sharply tailored blazers and polished loafers. • Her borrowed-from-the-boys atude exuded power and confidence and, most importantly, a less obvious brand of sex appeal.

Thanks to her internaonal style icon status, the bag quickly became famous and so Hermes renamed it in her honor; thus was born the Kelly bag. “I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the preest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles.” AUDREY HEPBURN • Hepburn was the picture of pared-down elegance both on and off screen.

Even aer she remarried to Greek tycoon Aristotle Onassis, shiaing her style from pillbox hats and shia dresses to oversized sunglasses and head scarves • Upon her entree into the White House, jackie hired Hollywood heavyweight, designer Oleg Cassini, to create her wardrobe -- though she gave him direc@on a plenty • The First Lady favored empire-waist gowns, sensible heels, gloves and streamlined suits with knee-length skirts and 3/4 sleeves • Besides Cassini, jackie also pulled pieces from Dior, Givenchy and Chanel, the designer behind her most iconic look: the pink boucle suit and matching pillbox hat she was wearing when her husband was assassinated “I used to be a thing; I'm a person now” TWIGGY Lesley Lawson , widely known by the nickname Twiggy • Twiggy was the world's first supermodel: a skinny kid with the face of an angel who became an icon • Twiggy, an extremely successful model in the '60s, was more than just a magazine maven: She was a trendseGer, a daring dresser, and an icon in her own right • Twiggy worked closely with Mary Quant and her fashion collaboraons, seen in dresses and skirts that hit at around six or seven inches above the knees • Incomparably scandalous for the @me, the mini quickly made its way onto magazine covers and in nearly every adver@sing campaign of the laer part of the decade • She was the poster child of the 60s • Who could forget Keaton dressed in a vest, @e, and bowler hat in her famous role as Annie Hall?

When Keaton does go the more feminine route, it's never in an expected way: full, below-the- knee skirts with wide belts, high-collared shirts, and statement jewelry like outsized brooches or crucifixes.

A pair of fiGed gloves. • Signature items: baggy blazers, wide waist-cinching belts, bowler hats, turtlenecks, gloves. “Keep smiling - it takes 10 years off!” jANE BIRKIN • With her straight bangs, calm stare and gapped teeth, Birkin emerged in the Swinging london scene of the 1960s, appearing briefly in the 1966 film Blowup, and as the fantasy- like model in the psychedelic Wonder wall from 1968. • In 1981, Hermès chief execuve jean-Louis Dumas was seated next to Birkin on a flight from Paris to London.
