My favourite Prince era for his appearance and look is:

1991 Diamonds and Pearls (how he looks in the video collection)- 1992 Symbol (How he looks in the 3 chains of Gold video collection)

I love that era for his hairstyle, clothing and general appearance.

My least favourite is:

1993-1995 The Act II / MBGITW video type appearance, he looks too thin and pale and I am not keen on the hairstyle he had then.

Closely followed by 2002 ONA era...i hated Prince in suits....almost like a dodgy preacher. I love P for his creativity and suits do not show that - thankfully now he is wearing cool creative clothes again

Am I the only one who likes a bit of every era....obviously a good few have their questionable moments but there's one good or at least one interesting clothing style per era

If I had to choose ones in particular. I'd sayyyyyyyy Controversy for fave

NPS - Rave for least

No, I like each era, however, there were some jack up hair and clothing styles. The Rave alien suite and hairstyle and some of those suites were questionable

My fave will always b Parade Tour 86,those suits were hot! man Prince looked GOOD,his hair was short & he looked the amazing.

Eye liked it when Prince plated his hair F**K that was a cool look 4 Prince.

Eye cant say i liked how in looks in the Musicology video!!!His hair was awful like a mini affro simply ghastly and his hair now in 2011 eye dont like either.And ive also had it with all the kaftans and ethnic stuff eye wish Prince would bin that look!!!

Have to agree with that, he looked like he had a dead beaver on his head... but the face looks beautiful

SOTT movie style for fave!

The 1997 short hairstyle era for least fave! Think muppet appearance..... yuk!

1999/Purple Rain

The "Jesus" look...what was the CD(s) associated with that look?

Planet Earth

Didn't

Rave

Slave/Emancipation

Come

Musicology- at least the look he had in the CD title's video (low-fro...oh no)

ATWIAD

Fave - Warner Bros. 1978-1995

Least fave - EMI; Arista; Sony etc...... 1996-2010

Favourite: 1999 era

Most favourite:

TGE era (1994-1995)

Pre Purple Rain and Purple Rain era (1983-1984)

UTCM style (1985-1986)

Early Newpower Soul era (1997)

SOTT tour style (1987)

Least favourite:

Lovesexy tour style (1988) [sorry, I find it cool, but style-wise it's just too over-the-top for me]

Rave era (1999-2000)

Prince era (1979)

Emancipation era (1996) [didn't like the beard then]

Favorite: Purple Rain - Lovesexy. Prefering Parade over all

Least Fav: Diamonds & Pearls to Gold Experience

Least - anytime he has short hair. He pulled it off ok on Parade cause it was so different than what people were used to seeing on him at the time, but he looked ridiculous (even for him) around The Gold/Emancipation era. Looking tranny sick is not cool. Not crazy about his look since Rave came out.

Most fav - anytime he has long hair. He just looks better.

Parade era 1985-1986
Sign "O" The Times era 1987
Diamonds and Pearls era 1991-1992
Musicology era 2003-2004

Least favourite eras for Prince's apperance and style:

Prince era 1979-1980
Dirty Mind era 1980-1981
Gold Experience era 1994-1995
Jam Of The Year/New Power Soul era 1997-1998
