The collection of Tompkins & Bush: Michael Jackson’s wardrobe
On view now, Michael Jackson’s stage costumes from the Tompkins & Bush collection at the Getty Images Gallery, Westfield Stratford City. You can see the Thriller jacket (customised with reflective panels for maximum stadium visibility), the Swarovski crystal glove, anti-gravity shoes and more from now til 4th November. The entrance fee is £10 (tickets from Ticketmaster) which I think is quite steep as the exhibition isn’t big, but for costume students and die-hard Michael Jackson fans, it’s a must.
Some of these outfits were seen on the catwalk last month at Philip Treacy’s astonishing London Fashion Week show. Watch my Youtube video below…
