Michael’s Wardrobe ~ FENCING UNIFORM

“Fencing is known in Europe as the sport of kings,” says Bush. “We didn’t figure it out until after we’d done it, but with Elizabeth Taylor dubbing him the King of Pop, [the uniform] just fell right into place.” Initially made in black leather for photos shot by Herb Ritts, Jackson announced he wanted to wear it on his Dangerous tour, and helped sketch the gold one, which caused a stir for drawing attention to his crotch. 
The buzz has endured, with one of Jackson’s fencing tops going for $37,500 at a Julien’s auction in 2010. Estimated value: $4,000 to $6,000.
