English term or phrase: always in transition and setting trends
Bonsoir,

J'ai du mal à traduire cette phrase, est-ce que quelqu'un pourrait m'aider SVP.

Last but not least, David Bowie has inspired me as someone not afraid to be different, always in transition and setting trends, not following them.

Merci

Plutôt "en constante évolution". Mutation est peut-être un peu fort pour une personne, même s'il s'agit de D. Bowie...

en constante évolution, créant les tendances


Explanation:
créateur de tendance est un terme très utilisé dans le domaine de la mode et des arts (et aussi du marketing, mais on s’éloigne du sujet)
