In 2020, Harry Styles and his sister, Gemma Styles, discussed the singer’s interest in fashion with Vogue, with his sister stating, “My mum loved to dress us up … I always hated it, and Harry was always quite into it.”
Styles agreed, adding, “As a kid, I definitely liked fancy dress.” Specifically, he remembers being in school plays, and in his first one, he portrayed a churchmouse. This mouse could have been what led to the style fans know and love today. “I was really young, and I wore tights for that. I remember it was crazy to me that I was wearing a pair of tights. And that was maybe where it all kicked off!”
Additionally, when it comes to Styles’ love of clothes, he credits a certain singer with inspiring him: “I think both music and fashion, [my] main influence was probably Shania Twain,” he told Entertainment Tonight. “I think she’s amazing.”
