I wasn’t surprised that Swedish lifestyle magazine Café gave the prize for best-dressed man to The Hives singer Pelle Almqvist this year. His style is chic and Rock ’n’ Roll at the same time, which I think is really cool. I love the 1960s look of The Hives. The best thing about Pelle’s style is his new haircut as it looks like a combination of Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly.
It is just somehow strange that only Pelle won this prize. I mean the other band members wear exactly the same outfits on stage. However, they are not jealous. “I told them about the prize when we were eating a falafel at home in Fagersta. But they just think it’s cool. They are quite comfortable with pushing Pelle so that he can deal with stuff like that”, told Pelle Café.
Pelle Almqvist. Chic and…
…Rock ‘n’ Roll.
Best-dressed Swedish woman is actress Josephine Bornebusch known from for instance the Swedish comedy programme “Parlamentet”. The prize for international style icon went to actress Malin Åkerman who was in the films “The Proposal” and “Watchmen”. Jonny Johansson from the Swedish label Acne received the prize for best designer 2009 and this year’s newcomer is the label “Uniforms for the Dedicated”, which is an international platform for musicians, designers and illustrators.
