Flowers Friday: That’s the look – that’s the look – The Look of Love edition

11/19/2010 by Amy H. Johnson 4 Comments

Last week I was raving about 80’s English Popsters ABC and their album The Lexicon of Love. They have to have had some sort of influence on Brandon Flowers:

ABC Singer Martin Fry in "The Look of Love" - 1982

Brandon in "For Reasons Unknown" - 2006

Gold Lamé Martin - 1982

Gold Lamé Brandon - 2007

But you know who invented wearing Gold Lamé suits don’t you?

THIS guy!!!

Brandon is such a cutie that he makes gold lame practically the new leather, and from a vamp lover like me, that is sayin’ something 🙂

Awww!!!! How cute! Brandon all inspired by 80’s pop stars! I love it. ❤ And of course let's not forget The King. 😀 It's really quite cute to see where he get's his inspiration from.

He looks like a nice piece of candy in that gold suit! You know, one you want to unwrap and feel how it melts on your tongue…

Oh and I’m TOTALLY getting a hat like that to wear in Vegas next year!

Excellent observation! I am glad Brandon went for a more fitted gold lamé suit tho! I just noticed lamé is just an accent away from lame ;-0

I have had The Look of Love in my head all morning. Now listening to their Best Of on spotify and loving it!
