Take a look at Harry's evolutionary journey to becoming a fashion icon

2010: One Direction

After initially auditioning as solo candidates, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and the late Liam Payne were put together by Simon Cowell as One Direction. On stage, the teenagers were heavily styled by The X Factor producers but off stage, 16-year-old Harry joined his bandmates in wearing typically teen-friendly tracksuits, hoodies and gilets.

2010: Harry's animal hat

Harry sent teens around the UK crazy when he rocked an adorable fluffy animal hat outside The X Factor. Of course, sales for the hat went through the roof when it was discovered to be from River Island!

2011: Blazers and jeans

The One Direction revolution swept the globe and the boys' popularity skyrocketed. They signed to Simon Cowell's Syco label, embarked on The X Factor tour and released their debut single 'What Makes You Beautiful'. In 2011, Harry Styles tended to stick to the blazer and jeans combination and of course, always matching his fellow bandmates.

2012: More blazers

In 2012, Harry's signature curls remained and so did his love for a blazer. The One Direction stars attended countless award shows and wore countless blazers!

2013: Patterned shirts at London Fashion Week

In 2013, it was clear that 19-year-old Harry was beginning to break the boyband mould. The teen heartthrob was expressing himself with the occasional patterned shirt, Chelsea boots and skinny jeans. Harry sat front row at London Fashion Week and even won a British Fashion Award!

2014: Long hair and bigger hats

As One Direction embarked on their worldwide stadium 'Where We Are' tour, Harry continued to experiment with his fashion and was well away from his teenage 'laid back' style. Harry was rarely seen without a hat for his longer locks.

2015: Harry Styles in THAT suit

In March 2015, One Direction announced that Zayn Malik would be leaving the band and subsequently breaking Directioners' hearts all over the land. Luckily, Harry remedied this by continuing his fashion evolution and wearing more prints, patterns and distinctly different looks to the rest of the band. No one will ever forget this Gucci suit the singer wore to the 2015 American Music Awards.

2016: Harry with long hair in Los Angeles

One Direction announced their hiatus in 2016 and released their fifth studio album 'Made In The A.M.'. Harry was pictured at LAX Airport in January 2016 wearing his favourite Saint Laurent camel boots.

2017: Harry's debut album and new style

2017 saw the birth of Harry Styles as a solo artist and the singer's now signature style. After cutting his hair for his acting role in 'Dunkirk', Harry embarked on the promotional tour of his debut album wearing more colour, and heavily aligning himself with the brand he is now synonymous with, Gucci. At the 2017 Aria Awards, the 'Sign Of The Times' singer wore a patterned metallic suit and gold heeled boots.
