German band Tokio Hotel was in Taiwan to promote their latest album Humanoid. Besides their music, lead vocalist Bill's dress sense is also a hot topic amongst fans. Bill who is tall in stature and dressed head to toe in designer, attracts the same amount of attention as famous models. Most people assume it takes a long time and a lot of work for him to leave the house, he says laughingly, "I'm very quick, I'm done in 15 minutes!"
Amazed at Lagerfeld's designs
Bowie's style is an inspiration
Bill who loves fashion said, fashion is an attitude and is also where he gets inspiration for his work. Although his appearance often surprise and amaze people, comfort is a main priority of his when dressing, "But the shoes must have heels, it makes me more confident." During the interview, he was wearing a pair of 7cm tall YSL Jonny short boots.
When it comes to his favourite designer, Bill and his twin brother Tom both highly praise fellow countryman Karl Lagerfeld. Bill said that Lagerfeld is a genius in creativity, his works are always stunning, "very cool, they gives off a lot of energy (literal translation)." As for who is his fashion icon, Bill replied immediately, "David Bowie!" and that Bowie's glam rock style gave him a lot of inspiration. As a matter of fact, for the photoshoot, Bill's look was referenced from Bowie's style.
