Freaky or Fabulous: Michael Jackson in Balmain

June 17, 2009

To add to the long list of Balmain fanatics is the one, the only, Michael Jackson. Michael was spotted running errands in a head-to-toe Balmain ensemble. The studded blazer is from the Spring '09 collection, the leopard spotted cropped jeans a la Fall '08. Need I remind these clothes are meant for women? Regardless, the clothes are dope, and reminiscent of Michael's '80s flavor. You be the judge!

I had to vote freaky also but who else would have the b.a.l.l.s to wear this in public (I mean what other man). Really miss him, he was such a character!!!

Fabulous. It's MJ, so come on, now. That said. I have seen him in several Balmain looks that have been just as freaky/fab as this, if not more so!

"Need I remind these clothes are meant for women?" Need I remind you, the stupid writer; fashion has no gender. You need to be fired for your thoughtless writing. Ugh. Makes me sick i even clicked on the googled image which then brought traffic to this site. once again, need i remind you for next time a man is wearing something out of the ordinary; FASHION HAS NO GENDER. idiot.

I say FABULOUS 200%. And if by "FREAKY" you meant "sex on legs" then yes, MJ is both FABULOUS and FREAKUMMM (#SEX101)

You guys, let's remember what song opened the Balmain 09 spring collection--yes, it was none other than 'don't stop till you get enough' by the man himself, Michael Jackson. Clearly christophe decarnin got his inspiration from MJ and would be proud to see his creations on his muse. Why is women wearing mens clothes trendy and vice Versa not? Fab fab fab.

Michael looks fabulous and these extarodinary Balmain jackets and t's fit him like it was mean't to be.Balmain proves to be a great new updated look for The King of Pop and a nicely done ransition out of his miltary finery, yet they are bold and strong enough to give a nod to the past. Well Done

He is NOT a weirdo and his career will never be over!!!!! He started this trend back in the 80s, so this definitely suits him. MJ will forever be a trendsetter in music and fashion.

sorry. but that is hideous. we are not in the 80'. he needs to stop feeling sorry for himself and needs to know that his career is over. just get some therapy and take care of his kids.

Well it's Michael Jackson so it's no surprise. Balmain's perfect for him. Not freaky, but not fabulous.

I voted freaky as well, even though i love Michael. It's totally amusing. I do like the jacket cause it fits with MJ's whole M.O. The leopard pants I dislike, for anyone.

Well, I absolutely love Micheal and I do agree that the line is very Michael in the 80's but it just doesn't work for me, especially not the leopard jeans.
