--Most importantly, he confirmed that he truly is a fashion icon.
Michael Jackson, since I can remember, has worn a similar uniform every time he has made a public appearance: White t-shirt, tailored pants, white socks, black formal shoes, and topped off with an amazing tailored blazer or fitted jacket. Whether it was drenched in sequins, or mirrored something of a man in the Military, he formed a style that even a person with no fashion knowledge could spot.
I sometimes think his style is under rated, and
I know many of you disagree. But it seems only after his death it was truly recognized.
As I had stated in an earlier blog post, the Military jacket has made it's reappearance since the 80's in late 2008. Yet no one was really relating it to the King of Pop until recently.
Almost all our clothes are now bedazzled with sequins, but no one really ever credited this new trend to the King of Pop.
After watching this amazingly tear-jerki
ng and breath taking documentary, my
opinion about Michael (though always positive) had really changed. It just gave me a different perspective of him and who I had imagined he was.
Forever in my eyes, Michael will be best singer, song writer, dancer, and dresser in the world.
