Johnny Depp – The Fashion Icon

Johnny Depp, A Great Actor

As one of the must recognizable celebrity fashion icons of this century, Johnny Depp embodies a style that invokes words like Parisian, Rockstar, and Bohemian. Who didn’t fall in love with him as that swanky river gypsy from ‘Chocolate’ or swoon over him as Captain Jack Sparrow in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean?’ Bearing all that in mind, it is no easy feat to cultivate the many styles and looks of which Mister Depp is known for. Desire to dress like him? Here’s the breakdown for you.

The Classic Johnny Deep

The Classic Johnny Deep

The Clothes –
Johnny’s look can best be described as elegantly grungy – a mix match of quiet sophistication with quirky accessories. Appearing in public at moments looking like a hobo, he is a master of what to wear and when to wear it. Layers and accessories are a must when achieving his look. His casual wear usually involves vintage tees matched with a pair of tailored tight jeans, topped off with a sports jacket. It is really the use of accessories that places him in another category than your average celebrity – especially when he wears those dorky hot nerd glasses. While prancing down the red carpet, he leans towards quirky tuxedos with unusual scarves. Remember he is known for adding different elements to his looks and so should you!

Salvage Venom Tee – $91

The Accessories –
As a celebrity who believes in the power of accessories, Johnny seems to think the more the merry. Some trends he seems to setting is in his love of fedora hats and those thick- rimmed nerd glasses, other celebrities like Ashton Kutcher can be seen spotting the same style of fedora hat that Johnny wears. As far as jewelry goes he is not afraid of piling it on – he mainly sticks with one-of-a-kind necklaces, bracelets and rings, all of them silver. Only in Pirates have I seen him wear gold. With jewelry and other accessories the basic rule is not the price of the piece, but how it suits you.

BKE Chain Necklace – $12.50

The Leather –
As one of the few celebrities left in Hollywood who has not bowed down to the PETA pressure of not wearing leather, Johnny is not ashamed of his love affair with this animal by-product. One look his seems to have in all his leather goods from his motorcycle boots to his belts is that they appear to be worn. Brown seems to be his chosen color when it comes to leather as well. As a believer in waste not, want not I see nothing wrong with breaking out your beloved leather jacket and wearing it out for a night out on the town.
