Prince wasn't just an innovator when it came to music - he seriously pushed the boundaries when it came to fashion and, in typical Prince style, it was always slick, provocative, unapologetic, and a bit bats. From arseless chaps, to belly tops, sharp suits to romantic ruffles - Prince purveyed it all. To put it simply, he was "a sexy motherf*cker."
Since news broke of his death yesterday, various outlets have been cobbling together montages of his best fashion statements, here are just a couple of them.
The outpouring of appreciation via twitter continues unabated...
