Eighties icon Boy George has been making waves in music, writing, and photography for almost three decades. Now the talented star has turned his hand to yet another high-profile profession - and is making a splash in the world of fashion.

The Karma Chameleon singer discovered he had a flair for design while living in New York. Working out of his home he'd customize clothes for his pals, personalizing them with forceful statements and witty slogans. To ensure he was able to translate his concepts into reality, the resourceful talent taught himself how to hand-dye, applique and apply heat-transfers.

Fast-forward a few years and the singer's unique designs have gone mainstream with streetwear label B-Rude, which showed at this week's fashion fest in London.

Heading up the beauties presenting Boy George's latest offerings was pal Naomi Campbell. The leggy lovely took to the runway in a creation clearly inspired by George's Eighties heyday - a sharply tailored bustier top teamed with baggy metallic-effect harem pants.

The singer has earned a reputation in the past for the diversity of his choice of models, and the lineup for the B-Rude show was no exception, with Naomi being joined on the runway by transvestites, short men, and girl next door-types.
