U2 Fashion History

[bonocomet]

there are a lot of them around here, and I don't know why but it always makes me when I see them pop up.

I don't want to sound like an ass but I really hate this kind of overly exaggerated grotesque caricature. Gimme Hirschfeld any day.

(and obviously, not everyone can draw like Al Hirschfeld... but hey).

Can we add this shirt of Adam's to the "disaster" file? WTF is that anyway?

 

[Bonogirl777]

He has a black one too.
Edge needs to add other patterns into his wardrobe too. Yes, the man looks incredibly sexy in plaid...he could look incredibly sexy in a lot of other things too, I bet!
Larry's creepers =
Bono's boots =

But I really don't care what they wear. It's the music that matters to me. The style is just a very nice addition.

 

[lauramullen]

I think Larry is never going to stop wearing those creepers

 

[Bonogirl777]

I don't think so either. He was the first one to start wearing them and is going to be the last one to stop!

 

[Reggo]

He has a black one too.

Is the bib-thingy bright red on that one, too?

 

[Bonogirl777]

Is the bib-thingy bright red on that one, too?

No, it's just all black.

 

[lauramullen]

I want to be Adam's dresser

 

[Reggo]

No, it's just all black.

Ok, I think that's alright, but bright red-orange on grey... This just further confirms my thinking that he might be a bit color blind.

 

[Bonogirl777]

Here it is! Finally found a pic!

This one.

It just makes me wonder if they're interchangeable bibs. It kinda looks like it.

Do you know what that means? He had options! And he chose to look like a dork.

On the other hand, if he's color blind, which would explain some things he's worn in the past, they probably look similar and he figured he'd put the lighter one with the lighter grey shirt.

 

[Bonogirl777]

True, true.

We may never know the answer to this, but we can ponder.

 

[Reggo]

True, true.

We may never know the answer to this, but we can ponder.

There's a very simple test. Have a red and a green sharpie when you ask him for an autograph, and when he reaches for one, ask him to use the green one and see if he hesitates or picks the wrong one.

My dad was color blind. I screwed with him all the time.

 

[Bonogirl777]

I think my grandfather was color blind.

 

[MsPurrl]

Going even further off-topic: my son is red/green color blind. We first found out when he was in pre-school and drew a picture of a tree with the trunk green and the leaves brown! Then one day we saw a red-orange car the same model as our yellow-green one, and he said, "Look! There's a car just like ours!"

When I was a kid, I couldn't understand it, then I found out I'm a bit color blind myself when I went to the optometrist. Didn't stop me screwing with him, though.

 

[BonoFly]

This has definitely got to be one of my favorites of Bono's styles, or at least his jackets.

Oh what I would give to find out where to get a jacket like that.

I like that simple look a lot as well.

The Axver similarities just keep stacking up.

 

[lauramullen]

I love the simple look on Bono

Just what is it about my beeswax lobster bib do you find appalling??

LOL! I SO agree!! at first I thought WTF?? is that a paisely bandana? you know like the cheap cowboys used to wear? then I looked closely at it and saw that it was actually attached to the shirt! !!!!!
