BOWIE David (Icon)

Wearing a glittering knitted unitard, David Bowie plays Aladdin Sane. He used clothes as costumes for his stage personae, each one representing a phase and an album: from Ziggy Stardust's tight metallic spacesuits and wild plastic quilted bodysuits by Kansai Yamamoto to a sleek suit and tie for his "plastic soul" disco album, Young Americans. He said of his inventions, "The important fact is that I don't have to drag up. I want to go on like this long after the fashion has finished... I've always worn my own style of clothes. I design them. I don't wear dresses all the time either. I change every day. I'm not outrageous. I'm David Bowie". At times he was a sexually ambiguous figure, using make-up and hair dye to achieve these characters and in doing so inspiring the New Romantic movement. Bowie's interest in fashion continued in the 1990s with his slightly less theatrical outfits designed by Alexander McQueen and his marriage to model Iman.
