Amy Winehouse: troubled singer, style icon, and fashion muse?

3/10/2008 8:46AM by Tiffany Neal



Although Amy Winehouse may be fighting a few addiction problems; married to a man who is currently incarcerated for trying to pervert the course of justice; and has a skin infection that seems to be eating the sides of her face -- the fashion industry can't seem to get enough of the troubled pop star.

Last season, the Kaiser dedicated his whole Pre-Fall collection for Chanel to the soul songstress. With Irina Lazareanu crooning in the background, the models strutted down the runway sporting Amy's signature bee-hive hairstyle and thick-winged eyeliner.

In February, Carine Roitfeld -- editor-in-chief of French Vogue -- turned supermodel Isabeli Fontana into a Winehouse doppelanger for the "Bad Girls" issue.

And this Spring, the love fest is stronger than ever -- leading International Herald Tribune fashion writer Suzy Menkes to create this hysterical slideshow of all the designers who were inspired by Amy this season.

Watch and learn.
