Harry Styles [1] might be a one in a million star, but we can't help but see similarities between his style and that of Rolling Stones frontman and 1970s icon Mick Jagger [2]. There have been a number of occasions where Styles's love of statement suits, androgynous outfits, and sensual, on-stage swagger have been compared to Jagger's — and we found some of the best photos of their matching style moments.

We aren't the only ones who think Harry Styles and Mick Jagger are doppelgängers separated by half a century. Rumours of the One Direction singer being tapped to play the Rolling Stones rocker in a biopic were swirling online for years, until Styles set the record straight [3] by confirming he had "never heard anything about the film". Even so, it's pretty clear to see why Styles would be an ideal pick. Beside the comparable passion that he brings to the stage, Styles loves a statement, slim-fit suit like Jagger. He also isn't shy about elevating his looks with traditional womenswear accessories like pearl necklaces, diamanté pieces, and printed, wide-leg trousers. Equally, these style stars look quite similar, which takes their twinning moments to a whole new level.
