Known to few by his moniker, Christopher Edwin Breaux; Frank Ocean, is an enigmatic and groundbreaking artist, one whose music and fashion choices are as creative as an artist gets. Frank pushes boundaries in music the same as he does with fashion. Staying true to his style of mixing streetwear, avant-garde pieces, and high-end designer looks, is what makes his work both on and off the stage one of the most exciting things to watch. We take you through six of his boldest and most iconic fashion moments.
1. Frank Ocean Wearing Graphic Hoodie for Streetwear Chic
Streetwear isn’t always bad too; Frank Ocean, is often next to comfortable and dressed style. His most famous looks see him sporting a graphic hoodie with baggy jeans and sneakers. This is a perfect example of the sort of casual but stylish outfit that perfectly embodies his laid-back attitude and love of street culture. The signature headbands usually round off the look, giving it a personal twist.
2. Frank Ocean in Puffer Jacket Makes a Statement
Outerwear is Frank’s fashion statement. The warmth and style they bring are matched by that oversized puffer jacket he’s been spotted in. This simple piece, whether a vibrant color or a unique silhouette is used by Frank to add boldness to his outfits, while still keeping him in that cool, effortless vibe.
3. Frank Ocean in a Monochrome Ensemble – Minimalist
Frank is sometimes minimalist even going in monochrome looks. Perhaps his best looks came when he opted for all black, incorporating a black shirt and trousers. Less can be more; his quiet confidence was worn on his sleeve as he tore through the simplicity of the outfit.
4. Avant-Garde in a Blue Velvet Suit
At a high-profile event, Frank turned heads in a blue velvet suit. The fabric had very good texture, and rich color and did not make too big a deal to be too over while his relaxed look made it not too overdone. It represented this exactly — how he could take high fashion, and fuse it with his signature nonchalance.
5. A Striped Shirt Retro-Inspired
Retro styles are the inspiration behind Frank’s work, often. A colorful striped shirt was one outfit that reminded me of a ’70s vibe. The tailored trousers, vintage-style sunglasses, and cool, nostalgic feel chilled this look out and kept it fresh and contemporary.
6. Neon Outerwear, Bold and Bright
Frank was at his most eye-catching fashion moments, in neon outerwear – a bright green jacket finely telling onlookers he was up to no good. Neutral bottoms completed the look and were paired with the bold piece yet the jacket was the element to pay attention to. And it’s a great example of how he isn’t afraid to experiment with color to stand out in a crowd.
Frank Ocean is as unpredictable and as geeky as his fashion is. He can come up with memorable fashion moments, whatever it is bold outerwear choices, minimalist monochrome looks. From fearless art and style to fearless fashion, Frank’s wardrobe never was there any holding back. Like his sound, his fashion is a comfortable mix of old and new, doing it his way.
