Bjork - Singer, Songwriter and Style Icon

 

I love Bjork. I love that she's an all-rounder, oozing creativity and innovation. Not only is the music amazing, but she takes it to the next level by putting so much into her image, artwork and videos - working with fantastic directors, artists and designers. Actually I don't love Bjork, I hate her... ;)
