"Though she&amp;apos;s known for her trademark beehive and tattoo-covered body, Amy Winehouse doesn&amp;apos;t think of herself as a style icon.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;A style, like, what?&amp;quot; the confused singer asks in the November issue of Harper&amp;apos;s Bazaar. &amp;quot;No, of course [I&amp;apos;m not]!&amp;quot;\r\nThe 27-year-old Brit -- who is still working on the followup to 2007&amp;apos;s Grammy-winning Back to Black -- says her unique sense of style isn&amp;apos;t anything to rave about.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I just dress like I&amp;apos;m an old black man. Sorry!&amp;quot; she explains. &amp;quot;Like I&amp;apos;m an old Jewish black man. I just dress like it&amp;apos;s still the &amp;apos;50s.&amp;quot;\r\nWinehouse says her style is inspired by jazz musicians like Thelonious Monk, Charlie Mingus and Miles Davis, as well as &amp;quot;rappers that are around right now, like Nas, Busta Rhymes, and Mos Def.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nThough she admits she sometimes appears disinterested in fashion, the singer recently collaborated with British designer Fred Perry to create a 17-piece women&amp;apos;s line for the fall 2010 season.\r\n&amp;quot;I knew exactly what I wanted. And I love Fred Perry so much,&amp;quot; she gushes. &amp;quot;I was honored that they would even [be] like, &amp;apos;Do you want to come and do a line?&amp;apos; Me? Like, me?&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
