HUMP DAY FASHION ICON:
DAVID BOWIE

WE ARE THE GOON SQUAD AND WE'RE COMIN' TO TOWN

Since it's the middle of the week in the midst of Fashion Week hoopla, I've been having some deep thoughts about all the fashion icons out there who have inspired and continue to inspire our visually-charged culture.

What makes a fashion icon? Is it personality? A fab wardrobe? Changeability?
These are the heavy, pressing questions.

In any case, I want to celebrate the fashionistas who inspire me, thus I'm starting a weekly post called "Hump Day Fashion Icon."


Who better to start with than the grandaddy of vogue, DAVID BOWIE? His fearless experimentation in the style arena has made him the Zelig of Fashion. And he looks amazing in clothes thanks to his long, lithe frame. His unusually handsome face built of razor-sharp angles and two different colored eyes doesn't hurt either. Here's a look at a few of my favorite looks from the God of Fashion:
