15 Plus Size David Bowie Clothes You Have To Have
Showing off your music tastes through your clothing is pretty common practice. Personally, my mom's collection of '80s David Bowie T-shirts always left me feeling envious as a child. And now more than ever is the perfect time to celebrate Bowie's legacy. So where can you buy plus size Bowie clothing?
After experiencing the passing of such an icon, it's only natural to want to commemorate not just his music legacy, but Bowie's influence on our style, tastes, and lives at large. Not all of us are comfortable throwing on a simple band tee, though, so finding plus size Bowie clothing that suits all our different styles is a must.
At the end of the day, I'm sure Ziggy Stardust would want us to celebrate our overall individuality just as much as he influenced our perceptions of style. Even if you choose to opt for a hidden pair of Bowie panties under your favorite rockabilly dress, at least you know that you're paying homage to an icon through a medium that he was well known for: that style.
If none of these appeal to you, why not dress up as the legend for your next costume party? Or perhaps a David Bowie tattoo might be more suited to your preferences. Until then, check out these amazing plus size David Bowie pieces.
1. David Meowie
David Meowie Unisex Tee, $25, Redbubble
