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’.
