Michael Jackson’s Clothing Line
Before his untimely death, the King of Pop was apparently planning on launching his own clothing line. This is according to designer Christian Audigier, who recently told BANG Magazine that the two were actually working on a collaboration.
Christian Audigier is the designer for the Von Dutch label and is credited for his Ed Hardy collection. I can actually see Michael Jackson’s style fitting into the brand’s market.
Says the designer: “I was working on merchandising with him and launching a new line of clothes, which was actually Michael’s dream. A month-and-a-half ago I had a dinner at his house and he was in perfect shape and was really happy and excited to be coming to London and what has happened since then has been very sad. It was based on various types of merchandising on different products, also accessories. What he wanted from me was the T-shirts and the hoodies and the caps. And it was very kind of royalist – kind of a mix of the real Michael Jackson and his alter-ego as the King of Pop.”
Audigier was also supposedly closely working with the pop superstar’s costumes for what would have been his “This Is It” concert this July.
There are reports though that even with Michael gone, the planned clothing line will push forward, with Audigier heading the mix.
Michael Jackson was such an iconic superstar who not only got attention for his talent but also for his uncanny style sense.
Can you imagine what the clothing line would look like? Designer Christophe Decarnin for the Balmain fashion house paid tribute to the King recently with this creation below…and it does not look bad at all:
