bowie and prince got style!

Just noticed their shared fashion sense during the 80's






How cool are those yellow suits?! Possibly more beige in Bowe's case, but still, I gotta get me one of them!

Check out the videos for Modern Love and Anotherloverholenyohead on youtube, there's an uncanny similarity between the two.

I hate it when Prince wears that ugly-ass yellow suit disbelief
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

There ain't a woman around who doesn't love Prince in that suit, so you must be a jealous man.

Not really. But I do think he looks awful in that suit. Also, I think the Lovesexy/Graffiti Bridge long hair suits him better than the Parade hairdo.

Prince was obviously influenced by David Bowie. Because that yellow Prince suit is from 1986, and Bowie wore that Let's Dance yellow back in 1983.

David Bowie and Prince both look very cool in their yellow suits.

It's called video. You can turn back time nearly every day.

Sorry. I don't know where that came from. Sooo nasty.

Um...

Embarrassed pause...

I agree. I wish we could go back to that time too... that would mean both SOTT and Lovesexy just around the corner... how cool would that be?
