Synopsis

Chameleonic, hypnotising and utterly irreplaceable, David Bowie was more than just a pop star. More underdog than diamond dog, he was an inspiration to millions: a hot tramp from the streets of London, who proved that anything’s possible when you follow your dreams.

Whether posing as an electrifying alien rock god or a thin white duke, Bowie’s career is a veritable kaleidoscope of ever-changing colors, styles and sounds. From Aladdin Sane to Ziggy Stardust, from Goblin King to China boy, from sharp-suited aristocrat to androgynous bohemian Queen, Starman collects black-and-white sketches of his most iconic looks, stardusted visions and stylistic moments. Filled with quotes, facts and memories of Bowie from those who knew him best, David Bowie: Starman offers a uniquely creative way to remember the Starman and his incredible life on Earth essential reading for fans of every generation.

About the Author:

Coco Balderrama graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2005. She has since been working as the designer of an exciting array of books and other editorial materials - many of them inspired by Coco's passion for beautifully designed fashion and textiles, eye-catching typography and intricate patterned illustrations.

Accompanying text has been created by Laura Coulman. Laura is the editor of a variety of music books and the author of Strange & Beautiful: The Fabulous Style of Lady Gaga. As a lifelong fan of Bowie and his dazzling glam-rock anthems, she spent hours poring over vintage records and re-watching Labyrinth in the name of research for this book.

They both live in London.
