One of the world's greatest singer-songwriters also happens to be one of the great fashionistas. Here are some of the wackiest outfits from Sir Elton John.

    1976

    Elton John dancing on stage during a concert.

    Pretty tame for Elton (as we'll see in the pictures below). Not only could he bring down the house with his music but his on-stage antics were always top-notch.

    Elton John performs in a military-style costume at the Hammersmith Odeon,

    One of the bigger hats Elton has used in his stage routines. I will always admire this picture for the pure gaudiness of the gold epaulets.

    Elton John and wife Renate Blauel on Valentine's Day.

    Nothing says a romantic Valentine's Day date like really short shorts and tennis shoes. I'm pretty sure those might be underwear actually.

    Elton John and Renate Blauel's Wedding at St. Mark's Church.

    There's having theme colors and consistency in weddings, and there's wearing a lavender bow tie, with a barber shop quartet hat. Poor Renate. If she only knew.

    1987

    British actor and comedian Griff Rhys-Jones and Mel Smith with Elton John at the Paladium.

    This appears to be a kids zip-up, onesy, footy pajamas deal. The hat, however, classes it up quite a bit.
