Imelda May returned to fashion rockabilly 60 years after starting with people like Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley, Gene Vincent and Jerry Lee Lewis.
Her references come from all places and all times: singers of the 1950s such as Rosetta Tharpe and Wynona Carr, the queens of rockabilly Wanda Jackson, the country stars Patsy Cline and Dolly Parton, and pop and rock icons such as Joan Jett, Patti Smith, Debbie Harry and Chrissie Hynde.
They all have one thing in common. "Strong women," smiles Imelda. "Strong women like me."
