Mick and David's infectious "Dancing in the Street" played while models walked in versions of the 80s tapered trouser and boxy oversized double-breasted blazer. Which somehow only Bowie made look good. ; Photo: Getty

Sarah Burton's tableau mimicked the louche Seventies back cover of Bowie's "Hunky Dory" album almost to the t. And the clothes hit a space age note of his other eras, too. ; Photo: Alexander McQueen

Diane Von Furstenberg Fall 2013
Other designers can be inspired, but Diane von Furstenberg actually partied with the man himself in the 70s (of course when Mick Jagger brought him by her apartment). So when she taps into a Seventies glam rock vibe, it's first-hand experience. ; Photo: Imaxtree

Gucci Fall 2006
