We lost David Bowie in January 2016, one of the most loved, creative, and inspirational individuals of all time. It would be unfair to call him just a musician without taking into account his unique fashion style. In the same vein, to refer to him as a rock star would not do justice to his acting career. Wherever he went and whatever he did, David Bowie’s clothes, as well as David Bowie himself, left an impression. So we’ve chosen one of his most iconic looks to transform into a Halloween costume. In the “Life on Mars?” video, he wore a blue suit with orange hair. Read on for more information!
During David Bowie’s performance, he wore an outfit.
This groovy costume calls for a suit as the first item of clothing. A powder blue suit should have a slim fit and be relatively thin. You can easily replicate David Bowie’s style by buying a replica of his claim, which usually includes the shirt and tie that will also be required.

Dresses for men –
Michael Fish’s Man Dress, which Bowie wore to promote his androgynous appearance, was his first attempt at gender-bending and exploitation of his androgynous appearance. A photo of Bowie wearing the Man Dress appeared with the U.K. publication of The Man Who Sold The World, and he wore it extensively on his first promotional tour to the United States in 1971.
Let’s craft a few things! We used black gaffer tape on those big boys to get the most authentic-looking boots to match his kicks in the video. Make sure that there’s some silver showing, too! Are you still up for tape? Awesome! The tie should be red and white with one line on each side. Simple. Completed. Next, cosmetics and hair! You can choose between two hairstyles for the makeup tutorial below (phew! ). The red joker wig is also the right color and cut, but not the right color.
