A little irreverence went a long way this week. Whether it was RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Season 8 winner Jimbo giving their take on pantomime realness with an anarchic kick, or the eternal rock elegance of Lenny Kravitz attending another rock legend’s 80th birthday, it was all about leather, denim and plenty of edge.

Lenny Kravtiz
Ever elegant, the rock legend adds his typical blend of rock insouciance in this louche Celine ensemble as he leaves Mick Jagger’s 80th birthday party at Embargo Republica nightclub in Chelsea, London.
Jodie Turner-Smith
From rock to hip-hop, a mix of both collide in this great outfit from the British actor, joining Hennessy and Nas to celebrate hip-hop’s 50th anniversary with a collaborative limited-edition bottle in New York. Both rock and hip-hop have made significant contributions to pop culture and fashion, and this Gucci bolero jacket with a bralette and embellished denim jeans is the perfect mix of both worlds.

The English singer-songwriter, who initially gained recognition for winning the Glastonbury Festival’s Emerging Talent Competition in 2015, has continued to make waves.

Lily Allen
Who better to represent the notion of rebellion in fashion than the late and great Dame Vivienne Westwood? The singer and actor dons one of the label’s distinctive dresses, accessorised accordingly with an iconic Westwood pearl and orb choker, handbag and heels, leaving the Duke of York’s Theatre after her performance in The Pillowman in London, England.

From theatre to theatrics, the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars Season 8 attends Susanne Bartsch’s crowning extravaganza dance party at 3 Dollar Bill in New York City.
