The Runaway Hippie

Jimi Hendrix came onto a scene which had never seen the likes of him before. He started out going backup guitar in bands which were not his own, often stealing the spot light and being kicked out of band after band. His aptness to be a star was clear from the beginnings of his career. In his short life, Jimi made a huge impression on the art world. His amazing musicality along with his cool style caused frenzies - he liked to make an impression. Big hair, big hats, bold prints as well as colors and hippie chic accessories are only some elements of his extensive wardrobe.
