King of Style II: Dressing Michael Jackson is a lavishly illustrated memoir by fashion designer Michael Bush, as told to acclaimed author David Wild.
Michael Bush was stylist, designer, confidante and friend to one of the 20th century’s most influential human beings.
With his late partner, Dennis Tompkins, “Bush” (as Jackson fondly called him) was responsible for creating the star’s dazzling stage costumes. Here, he tells how he and Tompkins created Jackson’s garments, from dazzling, dramatic stagewear to the singer’s more amusing whims and fancies – such as jackets that flashed back at ever-present paparazzi to shoes that allowed him to lean at unnatural angles, to crystal-covered “iced” socks and gloves, military-inspired silhouettes - even a crown based on the Crown Jewels of the United Kingdom. King of Style II tells the inside story, in Bush’s distinctly conversational manner, of how this creative journey and friendship blossomed, during the pinnacle of Jackson’s global fame. Along the way we gain an unprecedented insight into one of pop culture’s most recognizable creative partnerships.
