WHO IS THE NEXT STYLE ICON?

Looking at young starlets and celebrities, I often wonder who will be the next fashion icon that everyone will name in 50 years. Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Onassis gained their reputation thanks to an impeccable style throughout their lives. Would it be on the red carpets, staged photos, traveling or walking on the streets, their style remained flawless. Audrey wore Givenchy while traveling and one will remember the pictures of Jackie O (as opposed to a more contrived Jackie Kennedy) walking down the streets of St Tropez with the Bouvier Bag by Gucci along with her signature large shades in the 60s...

It is hard to find style icons nowadays. None of the actresses or celebrities seem to care enough to dress well in every circumstances. Appart from the big events where they all are dressed up by stylists, the casual leads the way.

In my mind, a style icon is someone whose style is timeless and which everyone aspires to be as demure/ chic/ elegant. It is a combination of chosing the right outfits and to wear them well accordingly to one's body shape.

SO, WHO IS THE NEXT STYLE ICON?
Please, submit your ideas, suggest a photo ( include picture sources ) and let me know who and why you think she is a future style Icon among the actresses/ celebrities/models/ personnalities of our time! I will post your arguments and pictures.
