The Unforgettable Fashions of Michael Jackson
It's been a year since the world lost an icon in Michael Jackson, the undisputable King of Pop. In his wake, he left an undeniable legacy in both music and style. See how he continues to influence fashion, on the runways and in the streets.

01. The Brilliant Band Jacket
Today's military trend is nothing new—it's a glitzier rehash of a look made iconic by Michael Jackson in the early 1980s. Beyonce's $12K Balmain military jacket was clearly fashioned to look much like one of Jackson's stage ensembles.

02. Robo Fashion
Most of Jackson's performance costumes were designed with ultimate mobility in mind. Often, his costume consisted of a simple white button-down worn over an undershirt and black pants—with some out-of-this-world accessories (Robo-boots, as seen today on Rihanna) for good measure.

03. Sir Sequin
Jackson wasn't responsible for the lasting popularity of the sequin, exactly, but he did make it more acceptable to rock extremely sparkly pieces for any occasion. Gaga would likely lust after that shoulder-padded jacket, no doubt.

04. The Bold Stripe
Michael Jackson wasn't just "Bad"—he was also bold. His thick striped pants were very similar to the Alexander McQueen graphic print suits seen on the likes of Kat Von D and Cyndi Lauper in the past year.

05. Jackson for Balmain
Balmain's Christophe Decarnin found something of a muse in Michael Jackson, who was spotted wearing the exclusive French brand several times in the final months of his life.

06. A Fedora, With Shades
More than a few stars were sporting Michael Jackson's signature shades and fedora in the wake of his death, including Lindsay Lohan. The hat has since become ubiquitous.

07. The Blinged-Out Belts
Miley Cyrus' glut of studded, blinged-out belts is nothing new: Jackson was piling the belts on heavy decades before her, albeit with considerably more clothing.

08. The Sequined Blazer
Former American Idol contestant Adam Lambert may have cornered the market on sequined blazers, but it's pretty clear he's drawn inspiration from his pop forebearer.

09. A Metallic Future
Fergie's costumes for the Black Eyed Peas' recent tour may look futuristic, but they really owe a huge debt to the costumes worn decades ago by none other than Michael.

10. The Red Leather 'Thriller' Jacket
One piece that will forever be associated with the King of Pop is the red leather jacket, made famous by his unforgettable "Thriller" video. After Jackson's death in 2009, several designers created similar pieces in the late performer's honor. Actor Jaden Smith sported one at the June 2010 premiere of his summer blockbuster The Karate Kid.
