Happy Birthday to the man of many guises – the original image breaker, style maker and never faker.
David Robert Jones, model mod.
The Thin White Duke - my favourite David fashion moment.
Bowie often played with the idea of androgyny.
He's always had a penchant for patterns. And ciggies.
He often mixes patterns and prints, and has a fondness for scarves.

Drama should have been his middle name.
He has inhabited many a character throughout his career. This is eons before kids were goo-goo for Gaga.

While he appeared in many forms, there were links to his past - and his future.
You see this image and Modern Love automatically starts playing in your head.
Tailor-made: the music was always accessorized by the image.
Covered, for the Jean Genie sleeve, in sleeveless body paint.
Atop
the coat he collaborated on with Alexander McQueen and wore for his
Earthling album tour. I screamed when I saw him appear on stage in it.
Yes, I was there.
