Has a high, stand up collar. There are visable seams running diagonally across the jacket, radiating out from the collar. The shoulders are padded. There is a dark silver zip running up the front, and two dark silver zips fastening two slanted pockets at the hips. There is also a false pocket on the left hand shoulder. It is hand-sprayed with silver and dark aqua paint, in abstract criss-cross patterns that mimic a metallic effect. The back of the jacket is spray with larger panels of dark aqua paint, and a large silver emblem covering the majority of the back. This emblem is an abstract combination of letter-like shapes, perhaps resembling a 'G'. It is lined with a iridescent, dusky puple/blue fabric. There is a loop for hanging in the inner neck, and a white fabric label printed with green text sewn in.

Her design for the costume can be found in archive file DBA/2/1/18/2. Moseley handpainted the costume with UV paint, with a colour palette influenced by Paul Klee's 'Blue Night' painting and geometric shapes inspired by Marcel Duchamp's painting 'Nude Descending a Staircase'.","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"'Urban Space Cowboy' jacket designed by Diana Moseley for David Bowie, for the Glass Spider tour, 1987","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[{"text":"Concert tour: The Glass Spider Tour (30 May - 28 Nov 1987)","id":"AUTH401723"}],"contentOthers":[],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["S.346-2024"],"accessionNumberNum":"346","accessionNumberPrefix":"S","accessionYear":2024,"otherNumbers":[{"type":{"text":"David Bowie Archive Number","id":"THES394108"},"number":"1987.2008.0016"}],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2026-03-30","recordCreationDate":"2024-03-19","availableToBook":false}}
