2013- The signature style
2013 was the start of what became Harry’s signature style for many years. You know the look I’m talking about, skinny black jeans, plain tee or loose-fitting shirt with Chelsea boots.

2014 – The introduction of patterns
Harry’s style today is known for being extravagant but up until 2014 most of his outfit choices were safe and plain. It was in 2014 Harry started to introduce patterned shirts into his wardrobe, which he would wear open and would be loose fitting.

2015/16- The long hair
You don’t need me to remind you of how long Harry’s hair was during 2015 and early 2016, but as far as his fashion goes, I’m here to tell you that his love for patterns grew.

2017 was also the year Harry featured in his first solo carpool karaoke with James Corden. In this interview James notably commented on Harry’s style saying: “you have started to make some quite bold choices. It is quite annoying because you can pull it off, if I was wearing that shirt (referring to the silk Gucci shirt Harry was wearing), I would just look like I’m on my way to a barbeque. There is nothing the man can’t wear!”

It’s fair to say Harry’s style in 2019 is best summed up with his Met Gala outfit, which will always remain iconic in the fashion world.

2020 – Brit awards
2020 has just started and for Harry we’re sure many more iconic fashion moments will arise but thus far his outfits from the Brit awards in February show just how much his style has changed over the past ten years. It’s no surprise that Harry has become such a big style icon when style is quite literally his last name!
