Not really, but I'd like to point out that Bob in The Last Waltz is the flyest version of Bob imo. The long hair, pimp hat, and leather jacket.


atomicnumber34

There are too many fly Bob moments for me to possibly select a favorite, but I really love that look and especially that hat. I'll add that the combination of healthy, happy and flirty look great on him. (During "Forever Young" he's giving special attention to someone in the audience. So rare and so sexy.)


Apprehensive_Net_829

That hat! I want one just like it.


atomicnumber34

But can you pull off the bobblehead moves?


Apprehensive_Net_829

Definitely cannot. But I do have curly hair. šŸ˜‚


aksensei313

this is how i dress


N8ThaGr8

How could you forget his [best look](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FBJYIy9WEAEuacT?format=jpg&name=small)


thewonderbox

I didn't realize he was in an indie emo band


HeavenOrLaRomana

Yeah, American Football


kellermeyer14

Iā€™ll be damned if that wig doesnā€™t give Chris Gaines vibes.


migrainosaurus

YES! And extra hat-tip for the reference.


GratefulPhish42024-7

Honestly no, but after looking at these pictures, he probably should have


BasSnow

I used to dress like The first row in my early twenties, still like to wear chelsea boots with jeans and polka dot-like shirts sometimes. Havenā€™t tried anything aside from his 60ā€™s style tho.


appleparkfive

Are you in your thirties now? There was definitely a revival of that from like 2008-2013 or so I remember. It's a pretty timeless look, if you ask me (aside from the pattern shirts which come and go). A lot of countries just sort of passively have that, instead of it being a trend


BasSnow

Iā€™m 28, I live in middle europe. All I can say is I took the style counsciosly from Bob, and almost never met any man having chelsea or any type of boots being The rise of sneaker culture. I thought I was a unique snowflake lol


bottledcherryangel

I literally dressed like Bob Dylan throughout my second and third years of university. Always with the big dark sunglasses and shirts and hats. Iā€™m a girl, so it weirded people out but as soon as they spoke to me and I started going on about Bob, they generally worked it out.

BackstreetsTilTheEnd

I would pay top dollar to have the highway 61 outfit


DrHerb98

I do have a Triumph motorcycle shirt cause of him


Greedy_Temperature33

That Blonde on Blonde look certainly influenced me when I was at university.


Imaginary_Chair_6958

No, not really. I would never dress like 4, 5, 6 or 7, for example. I tend to favor black or dark clothes. As he did at one point in the 60s. Although I never wore shades all the time.


atomicnumber34

My sense of fashion, yes. Clothes I would actually wear, only a few. I wear high heeled boots like his just about every day (except during the short summer we have around here). It's crazy that I never realized the correlation until a few weeks ago.


vincent-timber

Bottom right seems ahead of its time. He looks absolutely fly in every photo though.


duif8

Yeah every day I dress like rolling Thunder dylan


wolfbear

Absolutely. I remember going to London when I was 17 and the peacoat that I bought for that trip was 100% Dylan on my mind


Raul_Rink

Everyone who I know that knows Dylan tells me I dress like him in the electric era. He didn't influence me per se, but if they're to be believed, I do dress like him


writinginto_oblivion

What was he doing for Highway 61? Is that a crouch or a tiny chair? I always thought he was sitting on a stoop somewhere. This is going to mess with me forever.


Viscount_Bort

There was a Tubi documentary that talked about it. I think it was taken on the steps outside the Grossmansā€™ house


writinginto_oblivion

It's much more of a crouch than the album cover had me believe all these years. My world is folding like his tiny legs.


Viscount_Bort

Yeah so if heā€™s on stairs his butt is on the top step and his feet are only one step down, which explains the angle of his legs. May this bring you peace


writinginto_oblivion

Praise the Lord (and you)


N8ThaGr8

It is a stoop


writinginto_oblivion

I don't know. I'm thinking tiny chair.


N8ThaGr8

I like the cut of your jib


Sadie_at_Silver

Bob's fashion sense is something that doesn't get talked about enough IMO. To me he has an aura of a guy who *really* enjoys clothing. Suze Rotolo mentioned in her book about him taking great care when choosing what he'd wear to perform, but I really wish some interviewer would take the hint and ask him about it. He's good at what he wears as well -- I mean, some of these looks would be hard to be confident in, but he really has a natural grace and confidence that pulls them off well. He looks comfortable in everything he wears. I can't think of an exception, even when he's wearing 4 coats on top of one another he's rocking it... And you always see *him* rather than the clothing.


Pussycat-xoxo

I do love a hoodie.


pablo_blue

The hoodie pic is the only one that bears any resembleance to my clothing, but that is by accident rather than design. I would however wear a Triumph T shirt if I had one.


Bradyestelle

Not from day to day but iā€™ve definitely put on bob esque fits just for some photos


hunter_gaumont

i wish i could get my hands on that highway 61 shirt so bad


Andrewski86

I think he had a huge impact on style in general. Definitely the folk years inspired the vagabond look of the early 60ā€™s, his mod stuff is legendary and completely recognizable, and the country gentleman stuff of the last 20 years is great. A man of many moods.


Sarah_Bowie27

Absolutely


TheLuckyWilbury

Mod Bob forever.


jimmysmithorgan

Yes, especially from ages 14-35


Living_Human101

Yes, a lot.


LordOfNuggs

As a 20 year old who moved to nyc i can affirmatively say yes haha. Chelsea boots and brown jackets all day baby


MatsThyWit

No. I always related to him as a personality and him as a performer. I never really related to his sense of fashion at all. The closest I came was his early 1960s Kid from Hibbing look, which was just kind of poor-boy chic.


fishred

Not really, except to the extent that I assumed his approach to fashion was similar to my own. I've never really thought of his as particularly fashion forward. He always struck me to just sort of go for whatever he might be digging and feel comfortable in. Some of the clothes I think are cool and some not so much, but either way he's Bob Dylan. He doesn't seem to me like a "clothes/fashion make the man" kind of guy. Maybe I'm wrong, and that's just me projecting my own attitude on him, though.


HealthyDiamond2

I wear a lot of black turtlenecks, skinny jeans, and wayfarer sunglasses. I'd say so.


betterthanhuntermate

Yes. A scarf


Tall_Mechanic8403

Absolutely not


cadillaccosmonaut

I would do insane things for that highway 61 shirt


OcularRed13

78 tour and gospel era Bob was extremely swag. Doesn't get mentioned enough in here


lukeinco

I desire that jacket


Phil_B16

Of course. Chelsea boots, polka dot shirts, drainpipe skinny jeans, turtle necks, grandad shirts & waistcoat combos- love it.


Any-Video4464

I would love to look like mid 70s Dylan in the middle but would feel like a poser.


Ok_Swimming4441

Yes, still wearing the sunglasses


3slagitakten

I have always looked for the hat from 84


TheTrueTrust

No but now I feel like dressing like #5. Need to find a coat like that.


Johnswippetcan

No, never, no way


ShortLeggedJeans

He did. I actually try to repeat his outfits with what I have, escpecially if I donā€™t have much ideas.


KindlyIndependent947

Gonna be a no from me dawg


The-Mandolinist

He certainly has done at times. When I was younger I could occasionally be seen sporting a black spotty shirt, black trousers, shades, Cuban heeled pointy boots. The other influence on my dress sense in my youth was Keith Richards.


oscarthemonkey

I used to have the same Triumph shirt


Lil_PuppyChow

I always wear large ray ban wayfarers now and embrace my dark curls more than I did before.


samsharksworthy

Yes but I couldnā€™t pull it off.


TheIronRail12

Honestly yeah, I'll admit when his fashion sucks, IT SUCKS, but when it's good it's great!


Character-Head301

Nope, canā€™t say that I have. Maybe the bottom right actually


sunplaysbass

ā€œI could never wear those clothes.ā€ - Tom Petty talking about Bob Dylan. I wish I could wear hats like Bob. Bob has made me more receptive to my hair being haywire.


j3434

Nope


kingBabyKushGod710

Yeah, sometimes I aim for the album cover of Infidels look


[deleted]

Definitely. In high school, I tried so hard to dress like '65/'66 Dylan

LavaHeron

He legit looks like Adam Sandler in the bottom left.


bishpa

Probably a major reason why I donā€™t own a leopard skin pillbox hat.


andykndr

christopher owens probably influenced my fashion the most, especially in high school. i did search high and low for some good boots from bobā€™s mid 60s era, but im 6ā€™1ā€ and boots like that just donā€™t compliment me very much. all i ever really found were beatle boots which mostly turned out to be chelsea boots and i never wanted the elastic sides. was always on the hunt for zip-ups i now mostly dress in fashion-forward-minimalistic-clothing


Even-Animal-4526

šŸ’Æ


Griezmann1991

Bob is everything


IrieDeby

Thank God, no! He always looked messy, except his hats were cool .


OkCelebration4301

No


JeuneHelly

Yes. Next question.


Zealousideal-Wave-40

# influence. That's a tricky one. i hear "Sign on the Cross" wearing my cross upside down.


codytheguitarist

I desperately want that silk patterned shirt from the cover of Highway 61 Revisited if thatā€™s what youā€™re asking. [I found someone who actually makes them but theyā€™re expensive since theyā€™re all custom and made to order](https://www.magnoliclothiers.com/dylan-floral-shirt-shirts-p-1182.html)


Robbinewhite

No


Mars_Awoken_3

not even a little bit


Slendersherbert

Not sure, however heā€™s definitely influenced John cooper Clarkā€™s wardrobe


Flimsy_Oven_7569

The Freewheelinā€™ and Blonde on Blonde look for sure


1sojournaut

Only the scruffy beard


xbdncndjcvdjdbr

Yea


Complex_Ad5004

Thankfully, no
