Friday Challenge: Dress Like a Star

[UrbanComposition]

For better or worse, much of what the film/TV industry churns out influences what becomes acceptable, even cool, to wear. Some are the obvious references, such as Dickie Greenleaf (a name practically unknown outside of menswear nerd circles), Indiana Jones, and 007. But which ones have inspired you? More to the point of the challenge, can you duplicate it?

This isn't so much a copycat challenge, but...kinda. The idea is to post a pic of what you're referencing, and a pic of you wearing the same or similar outfit. I'm giving this one a few weeks, since it may take a while to find your muse...

Here's some pics to get you started:

 

[Thrift Vader]

This is a good one! Very inclusive. Participation should be through the roof.

Love the challenge theme, how long will it run?

Here’s a thread I started Last year that May help with inspiration:

Hollywood Inspiration: Clothing in Film & Television (Spring/Summer)

At least two weeks. Think that’ll be enough time?

Which one is you?

For those of you who dig musicians more than film stars (looking at you @EFV ) let's not forget these gems:

David Bowie in "The Man Who Fell to Earth"

Nick Cave in "Wings of Desire"

Sting in "Dune"

...and of course, Prince in "Purple Rain"

 

[Betelgeuse]

Nice! It was hard to pick up a movie star but a musician, works for me.

 

[Clouseau]

…or Mick Jagger in "Performance"

Elton John and The Who in "Tommy"

(You've got to find the boots though)

Joe Strummer in "Docteur Chance"

or more recently Marilyn Manson in "Let me make you a martyr"

Sting in "Dune" should appeal to @Rais, his picture in the movie is his avatar and they bear some resemblance.

I will try to play.
