Fiery red hair, face paint and the 1986 film 'Labyrinth' all have one major thing in common: they're just a few of the things that make up the incredible rock legend known as David Bowie.
Recognized for both his iconic style and his psychedelic music, Bowie has influenced countless fashion editorials, pop culture movements and art projects worldwide. His iconic Ziggy Stardust persona has been imitated, remixed and honored by celebrities and fans alike, with the most recent tribute appearing in the form of a Ziggy-fied Kate Moss on the cover of Vogue Paris.
With countless hits and over 20 astonishing albums to date, 64-year-old David Bowie is showing no signs of slowing down as he continues to influence musicians and creators worldwide. Check out these incredible David Bowie innovations for all the best from this iconic rocker.
