What are three essential items in your wardrobe? Hats, brooches and scarves.
Can you remember a favourite outfit from when you were a child? My mother sewed me a clown outfit the night before a fancy-dress day at school. Another time, she made me a Tutankhamun outfit. I loved that.
And your worst fashion mistake? Well, I’ve never done a Lenny Kravitz and split my pants on stage. Maybe an item is too tight, but these days no one really cares. I could be showing my midriff and people will go, “Yeah, good for you, man.” Attitudes are changing.
Is there something you are coveting? No, I take it as it comes. Sometimes I think, “When is my thirst going to be satisfied?” I’ll be wearing a really loud outfit and think, “This is not enough. The beast is getting bigger.”
Is there anything you would never wear? Probably a floral dress. But I’m happy to take from all styles and eras. Like my music, it’s inclusive, non-gendered and for everyone.
Is there a current trend you like? I’m not following them; I hope my look is timeless.
Tawadros takes his style cues from Egyptian actor Anwar Wagdi.
What shoes do you wear the most? Silver Vans slip-ons. I wear loafers and slip-on sneakers in different colours – if my outfit is predominately orange, I have to have orange shoes. I’ve even been known to dye leather shoes purple.
Who is your favourite fashion icon? Egyptian actor Anwar Wagdi. I was dying to have his hairstyle as a kid, and I did, when I had hair, but life is cruel: now I’m bald and have to wear hats.
What do you wear on a typical working day? I like to dress the same way all the time; if you are delivering something genuine on stage, you have to be yourself. It might be checked trousers, a colourful button-down shirt, a blazer with a brooch and my Order of Australia pin, a paisley scarf and a fez.
What’s your favourite off-duty, casual Sunday look? Shorts, a shirt, loafers and sunglasses – all colourful.
Tawadros is performing The Four Seasons with the Australian Chamber Orchestra nationally until March 27; aco.com.au.
