Chan Marshall, the style behind Cat Power.


I feel there has been a distinctly musical vibe to Random Fashion Coolness of late, which continues today. Cat Power or Chan (pronounced "Shaun") Marshall is as juxtaposed as her names. A fashion icon, championed by Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel, Chan seems equally comfortable in her laid back, stage uniform of jeans and shirts. High end fashion vedette to gruff, angelic voiced performer - her talents span the celebrity spectrum. She reportedly caught the attention of Lagerfeld while smoking outside a New York hotel; he approached her, saying, "Only a certain type of woman can look glamorous when smoking" and thus her model alter-ego was born. Her music delights my mind and must be listened to and as for her fashion future, watch this space. See her official website here.
