With their dime-store sunglasses and signature chest-length beards, ZZ Top wasn't exactly known for being fashion forward. Still, the group's gritty style fit perfectly with its bold, bluesy, and fantastically vulgar tunes.

Like David Bowie below, the Kinks penned their 1966 single, "Dedicated Follower of Fashion," to poke fun at those who insisted on following the latest trends.

Pioneering hip-hop trio Run D.M.C. wore Adidas brand sneakers religiously, and in 1986, they wrote a song about "My Adidas." Adidas returned the favor in 2005 by designing a Run D.M.C. sneaker that was just like the original, but without the laces.

Bowie's hit single "Fashion," which appeared on this 1980 rock album, has been interpreted as a subtle commentary on the ways in which the public can be bullied into conformity. Interestingly, a decade after the release of this somewhat cynical tribute to fashion, Bowie married world-renowned supermodel Iman.

Watch out for Ms. Sinatra's white, patent leather, knee-high footwear. This singer's 1960s hit single, "These Boots Are Made for Walkin,'" was the "Independent Woman" (you know, Destiny's Child) of its day.
