I'm pretty sure I'm going to be some incarnation of David Bowie for Halloween. I'm currently torn between Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, or the creepy clown from the Ashes to Ashes video.
What would you do? And for the first two, what would you wear clothing-wise? Hair and makeup are a given, but clothing.... Trickier.
Ziggy Stardust just because it's his most iconic and you wouldn't be stuck explaining "whaaat are yoouuuu supposed to be" to drunk people all night. Well, at least not as much maybe.
My first instinct is to find a dance store and find an old recital/twirler leotard. Those things come in pants form sometimes and in bright glittery patterns. I used to own a red/black one that was perfectly Bowie. Second instinct is a pair of skinny pants in a metallic paired with a poet shirt or some kind of shirt with exaggerated sleeves. Third instinct is to find a suit at Goodwill and use fabric paint to paint stripes on it. Pair with red boots (rubber if necessary). Sew shoulder pads on the outside shoulders and paint those too.
