Every Thursday, AF profiles a style icon from the music world. This week’s icon is Lorely Rodriguez, the Brooklynite better known as Empress Of. She made her rounds at CMJ 2013 and stole our hearts with her dreamy pop and feminine menswear.
Though relatively new to the music scene, Empress Of is already stealing our hearts. Her hits like “Champagne” and “Hat Trick” have the perfect combination of dreamy ’90s pop and new-age synthesizers to get a crowd to hang on her every note during performances. And then there is her clothing. She combines oversized blazers with awesome print pants to accentuate her tiny frame. Who doesn’t love a good pant? Other times, she’s sporting button-ups, and there’s usually a collar involved. It’s business meets girly, much like her music. While we wait for her to rise to stardom on the radio, we’ll be busy ordering every peter pan collar shirt ModCloth will let us buy. Check out our Pinterest page for ideas on how to nab Rodriguez’s sweet style.
Before you do, listen to “Realize You”, one of our faves from the talented beauty, here via Soundcloud:
