Bowie

There are very few men that have had so much influence on men's fashion over the last 50 years; Johnny Rotten, Tom Ford, Helmut Lang, Jean Paul Gaultier, Gianni Versace, Bruce Weber, Ralph Lauren, Mick Jagger, Elvis Presley, James Brown, Giorgio Armani, Yohji Yamamoto, Edward Sexton to name but a few but Bowie transcended and transfixed them all.
From Glam Rock to Punk to the Eighties, Nineties and beyond, in Lurex or Linen, he was an incredible inspiration.
