She has the poise, the carraige, the star quality. But style icon? I'm kinda old-fashioned that way...I still think you need to have an individualistic, intrinsic style to be called a style icon (as opposed to a stylist-supplied, generic style with no distinctive elements that make it your own) To me style is about owning the clothes you where, using your outfit as a canvas to express your mood, your whims, your personality and about experimenting, exploring and having fun Having a stylist score your big brand couture and match them up with fab accesories...well it just turns style into a who-can-get-on-the-most-best-dressed-lists-and-hire-the-best-stylist-because-of-their-star-power game. And that, to me is NOT what style is about. If you ask me (and I know this is going to be HUGELY contreversial) even fashion outcastes like Divya Khosla who play with their looks, use it to express themselves and have fun with it understand the concept of style better than professionally dressed, impecably put together Frieda. She's Definetely MUCH more fashionable. But a style icon ? not at all (somehow I think that are opinions on this are too different to meet at a common point) I agree that she’s a diva. She has the poise, the carraige, the star quality.

But It wouldn't have suited Frieda, I think she should have gone with another dress. I’m not a fan of nude dresses but the runway version is simply divine…very feminine.
