David Bowie

Today has been a heartbreaking day, the world woke up in a state of disbelief to the news that David Bowie is no longer with us. 

Heroes is one of my favourite Bowie songs. Yet it is not only the music that I find fills my heart and toes with absolute joy. Bowie is a artist in every sense of the word and his impact on the fashion scene is undeniable. Bowie's influence on the fashion scene is not limited to street fashion and the looks that his fans try to mimic, Kings and Queens of the design world have also benefited from his creative genius.  

I want to share a quote that was shared on another sewing blog because it is perfect.  

"If you're ever sad, just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie."

Thanks Karen for sharing this quote. I am without a doubt grateful to have existed at the same time as David Bowie. It has indeed been a true gift. Rest in peace, Mr. Bowie. You have left us with an legacy of creativity to be inspired by.
