The Thin White Duke was one of David Bowie's most famous personas, emerging during the mid-1970s, particularly associated with his 1976 album "Station to Station." This character was a stark contrast to Bowie's previous alter egos, such as Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane, showcasing a more sophisticated and detached aura. The Thin White Duke was characterized by a slicked-back hairstyle, a pale, gaunt appearance, and was often seen dressed in a white shirt, black trousers, and a waistcoat or a full-length black suit, embodying an elegant, yet somewhat sinister figure.

The persona is often described as a "hollow man" who sang songs of romance with an intense emotional coldness. This period in Bowie's career was marked by his exploration of soul, funk, and the nascent sounds of electronic and ambient music, blending these elements with krautrock influences to create a pioneering art rock album. The character and the "Station to Station" album itself reflected Bowie's personal and artistic transformation during a time of intense experimentation and change, both musically and in terms of his life and public image.
