Everybody wishes they could get away with dressing like a rock star. It takes some serious balls to pull off...that, and a whimsical fashion sense mixed with the practical sensibilities of a biker. That being said...some rock 'n' rollers go the other way, and manage to pull off the sophisticated look of the dandy and still keep themselves away from androgyny. Perry Farrell, the founder and front man for such great groups like Jane's Addiction, Porno for Pyros and Satellite Party has always had a style of his own, and with time and age he has managed to keep improving on his style rather than clinging to the look of his hey days (a notable pitfall in the aging music scene). That in itself says a great deal about the progressive leanings that Mr. Farrell has, but to add to that; fashion Juggernaut John Varvatos thought Perry's look was so interesting, he was picked for the 2008 Varvatos advertising campaign. We'll just let the pictures speak for themselves, of which there are more of after the jump.
