What was Axl's best stage "look"/attire?

[Axeli]

 

1992 with full beard. 

Nowadays just too much hats. Jackets are cool

[cqleonardo]

he should stop wearing hats, lose a little weight and use more hats and bandanas, with the shirts and jackets he already uses. I freaking love that jacket he was wearing in Houston last year

[Black Sabbath]

Ideally probably 2006-2008, but current attire is pretty awesome.

UYI is classic, but certainly hit or miss sometimes.

[AxlRoseCDII]

2006-2007 was straight up badass.

i like this look recently. Small jacket, black flannel and he looked much younger

I remember thinking he looked cool on Whole Lotta Rosie at the Detroit show

[SnakepitH]

Crappy image, but this is my fave look: 

 

Leather jacket with denim vest, bandana, sunglasses, leather pants and possibly cowboy boots. In other words, quintessential AFD-era.

[The Macaroni Incident?]

Flannel and beard Axl.

[Good, Fuck'n, Night.]

axl's look got lost when he lost himself.  after he moved on with employees to spite his actual bandmates he lost his confidence, he lost control of his talent, and the bizarre ugly turns his fashion took were just material projection of how lost he was inside and how bad his record was turning out (his record to prove he was gnr alone and didn't need his bandmates).  only in 2016 does it seem that i'm actually seeing axl rose again.  he looks good and happy, something i never truly saw when he was playing guns songs with his cover/solo band.   

 

Reading this made me really sad. Its hard to argue with it.

2006 Axl wins this easily. The man looked like the badass rock veteran that he is. Whoever was in charge of Axl's look in that era shold be re-hired.

Imagine if you had this Axl:

 

With Slash & Duff on the NITL tour. Fucking rock heaven right there.

[Ratam]

Axl today -is+

[Caught_in_a_Coma]

Illusion Era

[F*ck Fear]

Appetite For Destruction street urchin Axl, was his coolest look.

[RONIN]

So in summation:

Most Popular: 

• #1. AFD era
• #2. UYI era
• #3. Lies/Farm Aid (combining both)
• #4. Gucci Axl from 2006
• #5. Grunge Axl
• #6. Current Axl

What's interesting is that even the Glam era with Axl wearing assless chaps is more popular with fans than Snoop Dog Axl from 2002.

Kenny Powers meets Vampire Slayer was the best look. 

[Słash]

He should get rid of the insane amount of jewelry he wears

Agreed. I watched a bit of the China Exhange video the other day -where he looks quite restrained compared to what he wears on stage, the noise he made every time he moved his hands was ridiculous.
