David Bowie: Bloomingdale's Spotlight

Me in front of Bowie's ACTUAL suits!!

Big News! As a special promotional preview for the David Bowie Is exhibit that will make its final stop in Brookyln March 2nd, Bloomingdale's has two special window displays with artefacts from the archives!

It features: 14 different 45s from different decades, 4 portraits signed by David Bowie and Masayoshi Sukita, 4 pairs of shoes from the 1970s, 1980s and 2000s, 4 different ties, 3 different suit jackets, 2 Freddie Burrertti suits from 1972, 2 different suspenders, 1 ISOLAR 2 programme, and a playlist (complete with lots of video footage) of Bowie music including: "Everyone Says Hi", "Ashes to Ashes", "Little Wonder", "I'm Afraid of Americans", "Fashion", "Modern Love", and "Let's Dance"!

Seeing his actual outfits and pieces, combined with his music, playing loudly (and proudly) for all the passerby to hear, was overwhelming. To be in the presence of critical parts of Bowie's career was beyond anything I could've appreciated all the way back in 2013 when I first saw advertisements for the exhibit. Soon, my five year wait will be over. I can't wait for March when the entire thing will be on display!
