He never seems to where the same outfit twice....

all that damn money..i hope not

Hell No!!! Pimpology 101

What does he do with stuff he doesn't wear anymore? Give it to a charity shop, but I mean who would wear it?

Yes he does! On the Diamonds and Pearls tour his costumes were sent to specialist laundries ahead of each date. Or so I read

The costumes were the same on each date. Certainly that yellow drummer boy get up! lol

Prince has a standard set of "home" clothes he uses over and over again.

I heard that when no one is looking,
he likes to put 'em on
& pretend he's himself.

He wore his "WELCOME" sign language shirt more than once, and his Emacipation Brrr Jacket. I think he wore the red polka dot blouse from the Musicology tour more than once also.

Then again, I could be wrong, and he could have 10 sets of each outfit in a closet somewhere. As soon as he removes one outfit at the end of the day, it goes straight into the incinerator! (Shoes included!)

yeah. I saw him wearing the same outfit at the Friday night parties in paisley park.

I don't know,but I'd like 2 c him in a lot of his outfits more than once!(assless pants,4 1 thing!)

Someone saw him get out the limo at Nokia Theater in an outfit that was suspiciously similar to the outfit he wore for the performance of BLB on SNL a few days later.

Also, I seem to recall he wore the hell out of that metallic blue bodysuit during the Rave period.


I don't know if the outfits are the exact same ones or if he has duplicates made of some things...

Albert Einstein's wardrobe contained identical sets of clothes, freeing the great man's brain from having to decide what to wear. ...

He's worn the silver and black patterned outfit and matching shoes from Under the Cherry Moon a few different times.

I see him on the "Jam Of The Year" tour in 1997 and he was wearing a white lace matching shirt and pants. I saw him ealier that year on, I think it was the VH1 "Fashion Awards" (whatever awards show it was that Fran "The Nanny" Driecher introduced him) and he had on the same outfit. I also saw him again in that same outfit in 2004 on the "Musicology" tour. If it wasn't the same outfit, it sure as hell looked like it.

Sure he does. He wore a pair of "UTCM" pants in some pics I've seen from a LoveSexy concert where he was wearing a white shirt with them.

Those black purple rain-era pants with the lace in the back? He wore those in the video for America (note: there was a hole in the back of those pants)

Also, that hideous suit jacket he wore at the BET Awards this year was worn on Saturday Night Live during the closing credits.

that's all I can think of for now. it's late. going to bed.

He repeats outfits, but only within the album era they are associated with

He wore that purple trenchcoat all throughout "1999" and "Purple Rain".

okay, one of the few crossover items
but that hardly even counts

He also wore his birthday suit on the "For You" and "Prince" albums.

Prime example...in the 1999/2000 era he wore that shiny blue number out!!!







yet, sadly we haven't seen it since

Of couse he does, I was so sick of that shiny purple rain coat, I was gonna take it off his ass! there are mre since then.

yes. recently.

He wore the same costumes all throughout the Alphabet Street tour. Maybe you meant street clothes?

where?

but yeah--at the NPGMC launch party out at paisley i went to back in 2001, he wore the same outfit he wore in the "u make my sun shine" video. same hairdo, too.

He wore the horrible ONA cross-fronted suits out. Alright, they were different colours but i bet the cheapskate dyed them.

The black hat on ONA in Vegas he's worn a couple of years.

...really? thought he found it difficult 2 keep one OutFit on all day.....what happened 2 changing every couple hours? did it leave with the mirror that shows where the makeup ain't 'blending'?

If it makes you feel better the Purple Rain purple trenchcoat was a little different than the 1999 purple trenchcoat.

The fact that I know this doesn't make me feel any better

He's actually had several styles through the years that he liked enough to have them made in several colors. That was one. I remember a ruffled shirt set in at least two, red and blue. Then there was the style I hated, the shirt with the little buttons and the points in front. I know he had them in yellow and black. Remember the "Sexy MF" video? That one.
