As if David Bowie just dropping a new album wasn't enough, London designer Paul Smith has gone and designed a David Bowie t-shirt too. The monochrome garment features an image of the cover of his new album 'The Next Day' and is sure to be just as popular as his new album.
The image, which is a modern twist on his classic 1977 album 'Heroes,' features Bowie holding a large white square that reads: "The Next Day."
The glam rock icon's new album went in at number one in the UK charts. It is the first record from the musical legend in over one decade and the first time that one of his records has topped the charts in twenty years. Such a resurgence of interest in the star shows just how eternally popular Bowie remains.
