!! OMG, “teleport us to mars”: David Bowie at the V&A !!

event_media-banner_med.jpg
Coinciding rather aptly [and apparently coincidentally] with David’s new album ‘The Next Day’, London’s Victoria & Albert Museum has curated a Bowie Retrospective Hall-of-Fame Memorabilia exhibition thingy-ma-jig.
The exhibition will showcase costumes, album artwork and set designs from Bowie’s various manifestations throughout his career so far; including the Ziggy Stardust bodysuits designed by Freddie Burretti, Aladdin Sane tour costumes by Kansai Yamamoto as well as Alexander McQueen’s Union Jack coat, worn by Bowie on the album artwork for ‘Earthling’.
Click down below to see shots from the as-of-yet unopened exhibition as well as some photies that show the reasons why the Thin White Duke has a wardrobe worth publicly wading through.
From one shape-shifter to another, Miss Tammie Brown said it right when she warbled
“TELEPORT US TO MARS”!
