Most of the items here are inspired by the Depeche Mode 101/Music for the Masses era. I've included some images for a point of reference, but if you've never seen Depeche Mode 101, I highly recommend it, especially with commentary. I bet you can rent it from Netflix.

I love both of the cold shoulder tops pictured above. They kind of emulate Martin Gore's bondage costumes, in a way (I know that's a stretch!). And a black leather jacket with white jeans is soooo 1988 Dave Gahan! I found the jacket and jeans on New Look's website, but I'm super happy that ASOS is starting to carry some of their pieces, too. And they have free shipping!!!

I've been wanting some black and white striped pants for a while now; they remind me of Beetlejuice! The face tee in the middle is sold out right now on simplybe.com, but they're pretty good about getting items back in stock. And how cute is the maxi dress on the right from Forever 21?
As Dave Gahan always says, see you next time!
I stumbled upon this post the other day and was so happy to see another DM fan out there blogging! :-) I used to dress like Dave with my black ankle boots, white jeans, and a white tank under a men's button-down dress shirt. You're so lucky to get to see DM this tour! I haven't missed a tour since I started seeing them live in '93 and I'm so sad they aren't coming anywhere near where I live. The closest is a 10 hour drive. Fun post - loved all the DM-esque outfits. You nailed their look with the clothes you found! "Keep Moding"
