Check out a sketch of the new Andre Van Pier-designed costumes for Michael Jackson’s big comeback. The gangster chic digs were reportedly designed last year, when MJ was in talks to perform a residency in Las Vegas. Now he plans to rock them during a Thriller 25 television special. Van Pier (whose other superstar musical clients have included Mick Jagger, David Bowie and Beyoncé) says he created the new look for Michael last year, when the singer was hoping to mount a long-term, Celine Dion-like spectacle in Las Vegas. Van Pier’s solar-powered costumes, which run more than $10,000 a pop, are made from a space-age fabric called prostein protein that changes color in reaction to stage lights. Our thoughts?

He will be remember and loved as he was a perfectionist and a clever American icon of the 1980s the decade he ruled the fashion industery from NYC, the time and place he most adored RIP my dear friend.
