Prince, His Purple Highness, just finished a book chronicling his record-setting [21 night sellout concerts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rush-50) at 02 in London. 21 Nights by Prince will be in stores next week.

Prince's style never stops in this [coffee table picture book](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marchesi-1824) of Prince, his band and super sexy long-limbed dancers. Prince wanted the images to be spontaneous - but, naturally, dressed in the finest designer fashions.

**Implications** - The [famous photographer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonic-editions) St. Nicholas says that Prince is a "very elusive guy." She had the opportunity to photograph Prince on many occasions where she explains, "You get a very intimate look at him by himself. His mystery is not something he works at. Itâ€™s who he is.â€
