Harry Styles: A Sign of the Times

By: Zaleski, Annie

Harry Styles is one of the most successful solo artists to ever emerge from a band.

Having enjoyed five commercially successful albums, a run of radio-friendly hits and a fervent fandom as part of boyband phenomenon, One Direction, in 2016, Styles traded his teen idol status for a stab at a solo career, and hasn't looked back.

Drawing on his varied musical influences (he cites Fleetwood Mac, Harry Nilsson, Etta James, Shania Twain, Bowie and The Rolling Stones among his creative forbearers) Styles has simply soared. With three albums to date--the most recent of which, 2022's Harry's House, earned him the 2023 Grammy Award for Album of the Year-- he was recently crowned the new 'King of Pop.'

He has also become something of a fashion icon, often challenging gender stereotypes; he was the first man to appear solo on the cover of Vogue, for which he wore a blue dress by Gucci- a fashion house whose creative director he later collaborated with on a collection entitled "Gucci Ha Ha Ha."

Outside of music, Styles has acted in films, including Dunkirk (2017), Don't Worry Darling, and My Policeman (both 2022). He is also known for his philanthropy and personal philosophy to "Treat People With Kindness." His fans adore him.

Harry Styles: Sign of the Times is a colorful celebration of a truly modern pop star and artist. Covering his career to date, it includes standout sections on his fashion, acting, influences, and fans.
