The King of Style: Dressing Michael Jackson is a fascinating look at the intersection of music and fashion, as well as an homage to Michael Jackson’s brilliant fusing of costume, personality, and performance to create his iconic image.Through his music, dance, and fashion, Michael Jackson created a mystique that was unique to him and recognized as such throughout the world. For five decades he mesmerized audiences—and for twenty-five of those years Michael Bush was there as Jackson’s designer, stylist, and friend, accompanying the King of Pop on his journey to becoming the King of Style. While paying homage to the original Billie Jean, Beat It, and Thriller looks that put Jackson on the fashion map, The King of Style also traces their evolution over several decades. Jackson’s penchant for the military silhouette is explored in detail, along with the trade secrets behind the sequined glove and the fencing uniform that he, Michael Bush, and Dennis Tompkins reinvented to make stage magic. It was Bush who dressed Jackson for the final time, before he was buried. Dozens of garments were left unfinished by his shocking death. The legacy of Michael Jackson lives on. An artist like none other, he transformed everything he touched—from the fabric of his clothes to his legions of fans around the world. Review: Consigliato a tutti i fans. Ottima qualità - Consigliato a tutti i fans del Re. Bellissimo libro scritto con amore e delicatezza. Descrive la nascita dei costumi di Michael, insieme alla storia della loro amicizia e uno sguardo sulla personalità di Michael. Molto interessante, commovente la parte finale. Bellissime foto. Ottima qualità di stampa. Review: 永遠の宝物でしょう! - ファッションだけでなく素のマイケルが見られる一面も・・・! 私にとって彼の遺品を購入することは夢で終わりそうですが、これを見ていれば全てが私の物のようで幸せになれます。 日本で開催されたマイケル展で購入するよりも、直接輸入した方が遥かに安かったのは未だに不思議です! 状態も良かったし梱包もしっかりしていた。

Una joyita
Lo compré porque mi madre es fan de Michael Jackson", y aunque está en inglés, le recomendaron el artículo por su valor fotográfico yla verdad que es fabuloso la de imagenes que trae a todo color. Venia bien embalado (no es novedad siendo de Amazon) yllego a tiempo para el regalo de reyes magos.

very nice!
a very nice book with wonderfuö pictures and well written. I give 4/5 stars because it's maybe not that much mainstream and very detailed (fashion and making creation michaels costumes). So the book isn't a book for everyone, but a very good book for every MJ fan! Michael Bush was a loyal and long lasting friend of MJ and it's really a pleasure to see a positive and truthful book about MJ and how things were done behind the scenes. A good book, not only focusing on rumours or alligations,but putting more focuse on the hard work MJ and his crew have done and the talent,creativity and expertise MJ (as an artist) had.
