Style is creative consistency over time. This can be applied to any creative work such as fashion, music, art, design and literature. Likewise style can be used to describe the presence of a person such as their character. Style is often viewed as expressing the identity of a person or organization such that words to describe style overlap with the words we use to describe identity.
