Style History: André 3000

It's pretty clear that André 3000 is a style icon. There are no other rap artists who have made more diverse style choices than 3 Stacks. He's always turned a blind eye and muted ear from the ridicule of others in the game when it came to his style choices, evolving into a full-fledged fashionable fly guy because of those same decisions. From his funkadelic B.O.B outfits and neo-soul patchwork clothing to his argyle and golf club-themed looks, he's come a long way since his couple-coordinated outfits with Erykah Badu.
The Atlanta native was named among Esquire's Best Dressed list in 2008. Not to be forgotten is his 1935 college football-themed menswear line, Benjamin Bixby. It's his 36th birthday tomorrow, so we wanted to commemorate it by reflecting on 3000's looks over the years with our Style History of André 3000.

Picture #20 is out of Vanity Fair. Let's try a little harder to give other publications their credit guise. Great piece though.

ANDRE 3000 LETS HIS SON SEVEN BENJAMIN BE TAKEN CARE OF BY ERYKAH'S ASSISTANTS/LOVERS. THAT'S WHY SEVEN ACTS GAY/FEMININE. DRE WOULD RATHER BUY A LOFT IN BUCKHEAD/PORSCHE THAN BUY A HOUSE IN DALLAS TO BE WITH HIS ONLY SON.DRE ALSO LETS SEVEN WALK AROUND LOOKING MALNOURISHED! WHAT KIND OF A FATHER WOULD RATHER STAY IN ATL THAN BE IN THE CITY WHERE THEIR SON IS WHEN THEY HAVE THE MEANS? A DEADBEAT THAT'S WHAT! HOW DID SHARON BENJAMIN HODO RAISE ANDRE 3000? 3 Stacks sleeps with women and never calls them back! What a great role model!
