Budget Direct publishes a post that depicts the evolution of celebrity outfits in whimsical high-res GIFs. This kind of content is important in two ways. Firstly, it exhibits how musicians use fashion to make statements that go beyond creative merit and impose a commentary on social, political and cultural values. Secondly, the post is entertaining and it engages Budget Direct's target audience on a more personal level.
The celebrity outfits depicted in this creative initative concern six musicians — Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, and Beyoncé. From the avant-garde fashion of fictitious persona Ziggy Stardust and the Queen of Pop's extravagantly iconic cone bra to Gaga's controversial meat dress and Queen B's gold beaded maternity gown, these celebrity outfits are not only interesting but incredibly inspirational.
