As a tribute to Michael Jackson, designer Luxirare has created this absolutely fabulous belted jacket and pair of leggings. Bearing resemblance to some of the gloved-one’s favorite costumes, this version is much softer in shades of pale mauve, yet just as edgy and futuristic.
The jacket, leggings and crystal embellished glove were all handmade with meticulous attention to detail. Along each of the belted leather straps are names of Michael Jackson’s songs such as ‘Billie Jean’ and ‘Thriller’ have been embossed, along with a special memorial ‘RIP MJ’ stamp.
This jacket rocks the military and eighties trends with a more supple approach. I totally am in love with the back.
