10 Biggest Style Icons In Music History
2. Marilyn Manson 
In the 1990s, Brian Warner stage name Marilyn Manson - was responsible for bringing shock rock right into peoples living rooms. Unlike many people who have tried to adopt a particular look, or claim to be a Satanist/say that they are inclined in one way or another in order to sound as controversial as possible and garner media attention, Marilyn Manson instantly seemed like the real deal. One only has to read his autobiography; The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell, to see that who he is and what he chooses to do makes sense. His distinctive look of straight black hair, heavy make-up, accentuated lips and mismatched contact lenses is hardly one that transfers well to the street, but it ensures that Manson remains an intriguing performer, and having such an instantly recognisable appearance has undoubtedly had a huge part to play in his successful career. Repeatedly pushing the boundaries while sporting a look that walks perfectly hand-in-hand with his musical output, Manson ticks all the boxes for a style icon in the music industry, and long may he continue to shock us.
