As a legend both in name and practice, David Bowie was a man of many faces — literally. A fashion and beauty chameleon, the musical hero did much, much more for pop culture than just provide the world with decades of incredible music. In fact, Bowie’s ever-changing sense of style and character was one of his defining traits; switching from lightning-bolt-clad Ziggy Stardust to a pastel suit-wearing, clean cut version of his every day self.
