The album sleeve of the swedish disco group BWOs latest album:



The bearded guy is Alexander Bard, the leader of the group, though I have no idea who's the main musician, his projects are as much visual as musical so you seldom read about that. Anyway, I think his costume is smashing. Of course it's borrowed and not his own, but he's wearing it in a correct way, not making concessions to modern taste.

What a smashing outfit. Isnt that inspired after the portrait of Robert Dudley?

I have no idea, but I instantly thought of Robert Dudley when I saw him, so maybe my subconscuious was telling me something.

I agree, he takes it all the way, without compromises. I dig it. And I like it way better than the stuff they wore at Eurovision song contest....... (was in Sweden on Saturday, so I got to see the whole finale... Very fun!).

Whatever A Bard wears he always manage to look like a run-away "trÀdgÄrdstomte".
