From chart-topping songs to his first Grammy win, Harry Styles continues to shake up the music industry with his angelic voice, as well as his dashing style.

You've listened to his songs, seen his album covers, and maybe Googled him a few (hundred) times, but today, on this holiest of days, we celebrate the birth of the singer, actor, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/gucci-beauty/harry-styles-fine-line-gucci-cover-story" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fashion icon</a>, and man of your dreams: <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/beauty/harry-styles-launches-new-life-brand-pleasing-beauty-skincare" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harry Styles</a>. During his early days as a member of One Direction, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/gucci-beauty/harry-styles-fashion-photos-gucci-fine-line" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gucci </a>poster boy found a second voice in fashion,&nbsp;one which only became more prominent with the start of his solo career. In 2017, the L'OFFICIEL Hommes cover star&nbsp;released his debut, self-titled album, featuring hits like "Sign of the Times" and "<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/harry-styles-s-new-music-video-stars-children-pastries-and-puppies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kiwi</a>" (which may or may not be about his ex <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/kendall-jenner-best-bikini-pictures" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kendall Jenner</a>), while also showing off his <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/harry-styles-little-mermaid-2019" target="_blank" rel="noopener">acting</a> skills&nbsp;in Christopher Nolan's war drama Dunkirk. No longer beheld by coordinating looks with his fellow bandmates, the singer showed off his burgeoning fashion sense at various press events, red carpets, and talk show appearances with a slate of eye-catching suits.
Within a span of two years, Styles cultivated an image for himself as one of music's best-dressed men, known for his '70s-inspired suits (often of the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/harry-styles-gucci-guccifest-gus-van-sant" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gucci</a> persuasion) and bold color choices. In 2019, the singer, in coordination with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/politics-culture/lady-gaga-wears-giant-dove-for-peace-while-singing-inauguration-s-national-anthem" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lady Gaga</a>, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/7-inspirational-women-documentaries-to-watch-on-netflix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Serena Williams</a>, and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/alessandro-michele-gucci-creative-director-harry-styles-jared-leto" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alessandro Michele</a>, co-hosted the Met Gala, where he showcased&nbsp;his <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/harry-styles-gender-fluid-fashion-stylist" target="_blank" rel="noopener">gender-fluid</a>&nbsp;aesthetic in a sheer pussy bow blouse. Later that year, surrounding the release of his Grammy-nominated sophomore album <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/harry-styles-new-album-announcement-fine-line" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fine Line</a>, Styles continued to defy stereotypes with sparkly jumpsuits and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/what-is-soft-boy-aesthetic-harry-styles-timothee-chalamet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lace moments</a> punctuated by <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/female-founders-jewelry-%C3%A9liou-harry-styles-interview" target="_blank" rel="noopener">kitschy accessories</a> and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/2021-fashion-trends-to-start-shopping" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wide-legged</a> silhouettes. In the throes of a pandemic-induced postponed tour, the "<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/music/the-weeknd-spotify-wrapped-2020" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Watermelon Sugar</a>" singer&nbsp;still managed to grace the cover of <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/biggest-fashion-moments-2020-harry-styles-telfar-strawberry-dress" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vogue's December 2020 issue</a>&mdash;the magazine's first solo male cover star&mdash;in a custom Gucci gown, despite <a href="http://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-defends-harry-styles-vogue-cover-dress" target="_blank" rel="noopener">criticism</a> from conservative spokespeople.
After receiving the all-clear to travel, Styles embarked on <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/every-look-harry-styles-love-on-tour-gucci-alessandro-michele">Love on Tour</a>, his ongoing multi-continental tour to promote Fine Line and Harry's House. His opulent ensembles ranged from his signature feathers and wide-legged pants to full-on costumes. Each night has been an opportunity for Styles to showcase the singular style he's spent the last few years refining.
On his birthday, L'OFFICIEL celebrates Styles' 29th year around the sun by remembering some of his most memorable <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/harry-styles-fashion-moments-golden-music-video-tattoos-shirtless" target="_blank" rel="noopener">outfits</a>.

A young Styles makes his first foray into the fashion world in 2013, sitting front row at the Burberry Spring/Summer 2014 show in a leopard-print Burberry t-shirt with black skinny jeans and a chic overcoat.

Setting a tone for much of his solo career style, the singer appears on the 2015 American Music Awards red carpet with his fellow One Direction members in a floral suit from Gucci's Spring/Summer 2016 collection.

Promoting his debut solo album, Styles performs on "The Today Show" in May 2017 in a pink Edward Sexton suit.

For the ARIA Music Awards, the "Kiwi" crooner arrives in a purple paisley Alexander McQueen suit.

Styles hits the red carpet for his debut movie role in "Dunkirk" sporting a black Calvin Klein suit with red and white detailing on the pant legs.

While inducting Fleetwood Mac frontwoman Stevie Nicks into the Rock & Roll Hame of Fame in 2019, the "Watermelon Sugar" singer dons a blue velvet Gucci suit with wide-legged trousers and a pair of white loafers.

As co-host of the 2019 Met Gala with Lady Gaga, Serena Williams, and Alessandro Michele, Styles walks the pink carpet in a custom black lacy number from Gucci with a single teardrop pearl earring.

Singing his single "Light's Up," the musician wears a custom sequined jumpsuit à la Gucci fit with a plunging neckline to show off his tattoos.

Styles fronts his album "Fine Line" in a bespoke Gucci look featuring a bright pink button-down with matching suspenders and a pair of stark white flared trousers.

The L'OFFICIEL Hommes Winter 2019/2020 cover star opts for a casual Gucci moment in a striped red tee, blue blazer, and checked pants.

Performing at the Jingle Ball 2019, Styles wears a glittery denim jumpsuit by Archie Alled-Martínez.

Rehearsing for his "The Today Show" performance, Styles greets fans in jeans and a colorblocked cardigan from JW Anderson. The fanfare surrounding the outfit was so big that the brand released a pattern fans could follow to make their own.

The singer attends the BRIT Awards in early 2020 wearing a canary yellow Marc Jacobs suit from the designer's Spring/Summer 2020 collection.

Styles performs his song "Falling" later on in the show in a lace blouse and matching trousers from Gucci.

The star shows off his many tattoos in a series of photos wearing just fishnets and heeled loafers for "Beauty Papers."

The musician's "Golden" music video features him in a striped button-down and checked pants from Gucci's Resort 2021 collection with lace gloves and a custom blue jacket.

Styles covers the December issue of "Vogue" in a ruffled Gucci dress and black blazer, a move that stoked criticism from many conservative pundits.

Styles poses for his life brand, Pleasing, in a cut-out black tank top and wide-legged purple trousers.

Styles delights fans during his Halloween-themed Madison Square Garden show, Harryween, by dressing up as Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz.".

In a feathery pink coat and metallic magenta pants, Styles showed off his rockstar side during his Coachella 2022 performance.

While attending the 2022 Venice Film Festival premiere of his film 'Don't Worry Darling,' Styles looked as dapper as ever in a custom Gucci suit.
