FASHION ICON: FROM STREET STYLE TO RED CARPET STYLE

We take a look at our Fashion Icon Julius Reuben Style from street to futurist to red carpet style.

JULIUS REUBEN RECEIVES FASHION ICON AWARD AT BEFFTA 2014!!

One of the ongoing joke about Julius Reuben's fashion is that he is simply too flamboyant and too outrager for one's comfort but some fashion Leaders would beg to differ. Often hailed as a trendsetter and self visual artist par excellence, Julius Reuben can add now another notch on his/her belt, if having received Fashion Icon Fashion Finest Award 2013 wasn't enough, Julius Reuben was honoured yet again as the Fashion Icon at the Black Entertainment, Film, Fashion, Television and Arts(BEFFTA)Awards 2014. In other words, his flamboyant, wicked and outlandish style has just been recognized by the Fashionistas of high Authority. The Model/Artist was on hand to receive his award and, speaking strictly fashion, he did not disappoint: he wore a see through trade mark trouser and all in one top cape with a long trail which shimmer like mermaid costume with clear stones all over it, his trademark platform heel shoes and completed with earing studs, angel wings ring and what looked like a diamante stones tiara.I felt a Rihanna The award was presented by the Founder of BEFFTA/Tv presenter Pauline Long. In accepting his Award Julius Reuben wrote facebook saying:"BEFFTA FASHION ICON .!!! WOW!I just landed my second fashion Icon award. DOUBLE TROUBLE.!! THIS IS A DEDICATION TO ALL OF YOU FABULOUS PEOPLE OUT THERE... You know who you are as you never fell to amaze me with your love.
