Sir Elton John & David Furnish
Elton John and David Furnish have been together ever since 19ö93. They entered into a civil partnership in 2005, the first day that same sex civil partnerships were allowed in England. After that they adopted 2 children and in 2014 after same-sex marriage became legal in England, Sir Elton and Furnish immcediately converted their civil partnership into a marriage and marked the occasion with a ceremony. They are exemplary both as people and as parents. They're celebrating the 25. anniversary of their love this year.
Sir Elton John's iconic style is easily recognizable thanks to his unique glasses and sunglasses, the very elegant but extravagant suits and awesome necklaces and earrings.
Furnish's style doesn't lack extremities either, however, he's more low-key and sophisticated. In 2015 David was selected into the 50 best dressed British men by GQ Magazine.
John Lennon & Yoko Ono
The two aritist met between 1965 and 1966 in a gallery, later they worked together on a few projects when Lennon and Ono fell in love. Yoko and John used their fame to protest against important cases like the Vietnam War and the issues of war, peace and love.
Their relationship is still controversial, because a lot of people think that the downfall of Beatles is Ono's fault.
Yoko and John left a mark in fashion too: Lennon's hair, the round glasses and sunglasses, the different hats were really iconic. At the beginning of the beat era he wore suits with ties or turtlenecks, later he became the ambassador of the hippie style with the multicolored shirt, jeans and fur coats.
Johnny Depp & Kate Moss
Kate and Johnny were together only between 1994 and 1998 but their love left a mark in the history. The actor and the supermodel were considered as the perfect couple with a very passionate relationship.
Their style is emblematic too: Kate and Johnny represented true rock 'n' roll, the wildness, the rebel of youth that you can find in today's fashion as well. Leather jackets, ripped jeans and black in all quantities. We really liked them together!
Jane Birkin & Serge Gainsbourg
Maybe the most emblematic couple of the French art life. Their love was rather scandalous. They had a different idea of intimacy that the majority in the era, and that showed both on their art and love.
Jane and Serge were together for 12 years and their style was inspired by the French roots and by the hippie lifestyle. The sophisticated elegance mixed with the bohemian: big fur coats, trapeze trousers and berets. Jane and Serge were style themselves!
Love may not last forever, but style does. These couples are still inspiring hundreds of artists and fashion designers. If you are looking for more iconic items visit us in D20 or K22 stores or check our webshop for more vintage treasures!
