Grace was born 19 May 1948, is a Jamaican singer, songwriter, supermodel, record producer, and actress. Born in Jamaica, she moved when she was 13, along with her siblings, to live with her parents In Syracuse, New York. Jones began her modelling career in New York state, then in Paris, working for fashion houses such as Yves St. Laurent and Kenzo, and appearing on the covers of Elle and Vogue. She worked with photographers such as Jean-Paul Goude, Helmut Newton, Guy Bourdin, and Hans Feurer, and became known for her distinctive androgynous appearance, bold features and avante guard fashion.
When it comes to enduring fashion influence, few artists can compete with Grace Jones. For the past four decades, Jones has been a touchstone for designers in need of a muse to channel fearlessness, androgyny, and raw sex appeal. With a list of admirers that includes everyone from Azzedine Alaïa to Riccardo Tisci, Jones isn’t just a fashion icon—she’s a cultural one too. The girl from Spanish Town, Jamaica, moved from top model to designer muse, pop star, and legend with a brash confidence and subversive bravado.
In 1977, Grace secured a record deal with Island Records, initially becoming a star of New York City's Studio 54-centered disco scene. In the early 1980s, she moved toward a new wave style that drew on reggae, funk, post-punk and pop music, frequently collaborating with both the graphic designer Jean-Paul Goude and the musical duo Sly & Robbie. Her most popular albums include Warm Leatherette (1980), Nightclubbing (1981), and Slave to the Rhythm (1985).
Here she is in a selection of her many iconic looks. She the ultimate fashion muse.
