Clothing Rail
Above you are some of the clothes worn by Bowie throughout his career, made by designers from Freddie Burretti and Ola Hudson to Diana Moseley and Thierry Mugler.
There are over 400 items of clothing in the David Bowie Centre, from casual everyday looks to dazzling stage-wear. We store outfits in protective Tyvek covers to maintain them. This is one way that we care for clothing in our collection
