10 Ladies Who Changed the World of Fashion with Their Very Eccentric Style

 

You might think that fashion is created and mostly influenced by professional fashion designers all over the world, but there are people out there who manage to do a lot for the world of fashion and change it in the most amazing ways just by being themselves. Some of them are fashion designers, some are muses and some are just exceptional human beings with a very eccentric style that is uniquely theirs. Let’s take a look at 10 ladies who changed the world of fashion by essentially just being themselves and sharing that with the world.

 

 

1. Elsa Schiaparelli
Elsa was an amazing Italian fashion designer who was considered to be one of the greatest between World War 1 and World War 2. She worked during the same time as Coco Chanel and considered Coco to be her biggest rival. Unlike Coco, who wanted simplicity in her fashion and created classy pieces, Elsa liked a bit of whimsy in her fashion and created absolutely extraordinary masterpieces that would make a lasting impression.

 

2. Carmen Miranda
Carmen was a Brazilian singer, dancer, actress and woman extraordinaire that changed the world of fashion with her colorful fruity outfits. What a way to bring some flair to your outfit with fruits and bright fabrics. She loved celebrating life and the carnival culture and it definitely showed in her style.

 

 

3. Marchesa Luisa Casati
Marchesa Luisa Casati is known as a mad muse, who shocked and inspired many in the 1920s with her dark and unusual style. Some call her a lunatic, but we see a woman who wasn’t afraid to stand out and was unapologetically herself and wore whatever she wanted and however, she wanted. Her influence is still visible in the modern fashion world and references to her submerge every couple of years at fashion shows.

 

4. Nancy Cunard
When people talk about Nancy Cunard they often use words like heiress, activist, provocateur, queen of the jazz age. She’s also a writer and a fashion icon too. This woman had a very particular sense of style and boy did she love her bangles. She wore so many at a time that we’re pretty sure we have to thank her for that trend.
