デヴィッド・ボウイさんのインスタグラム写真 - (デヴィッド・ボウイInstagram)「THE WORLD IS WEARING DAVID BOWIE “And so the story goes they wore the clothes...” There’s a great piece by Susannah Cohen over on okwhatever.org titled: The Enduring Appeal of David Bowie Merch. The article also makes the observation that “Someone you know owns a Bowie T-shirt. It's (kind of) a fact.” (http://smarturl.it/OKWhateverDBmerch) Here are a couple of edited excerpts from it: + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + Everything looks better with David Bowie’s face on it. And a lot of people know this. Lady Gaga knew it when she rejoiced over A Star Is Born’s BAFTA win, posting a video to Twitter dressed in nothing but an oversized T-shirt that said “Bowie.” Man Booker Prize-winning author Marlon James knows it, too. He’s been rocking a Bowie tee — a black, long-sleeved one celebrating his Let’s Dance era — in publicity shots for his latest novel, Black Leopard, Red Wolf. And sneaker brand Vans knew it when they launched a limited edition collection based on four different Bowie albums in April. + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + Norman Perry is the president of Perryscope Productions, a licensing and merchandising company that represents David Bowie in partnership with Epic Rights. He believes that Bowie’s personal style has a lot to do with his impact on fashion. “I have four clients [Bowie, Janis Joplin, Miles Davis and Jimi Hendrix] that were fashion forward, and they each looked different on every album cover, every tour, there's a handful of people where clothes were a really significant part of their persona and their aura, and in the case of David Bowie, he was not a predictable man.” + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + - + FOOTNOTE: Our montage shows David Bowie in 2002 sporting a 1973 live T-shirt.
