THOUGH HIS PERSONAL LIFE WAS greatly surrounded with controversy for years, Michael Jackson will always be known as the King of Pop. He was able to set himself apart not only as a talented musical artist but also as a fashion icon.

Like Jackson, who brought the world of music countless hits, Stella Luna brings us a bevy of “hit shoes.”

What sets this series apart from other collections inspired by the King of Pop is that it is “designed as homage to the great performer, not necessarily a dissection of photographic imagery and wardrobe references, but a celebration of an idol from deep-rooted personal admiration and viewpoint,” says Stephen Chi, creative director of Stella Luna Fashion Inc.

The series, aptly titled “Long Live The King,” is not only influenced by Jackson’s unique style or music, but also “the man himself.”

“Many performers follow fashion rather than create it, but he was self-styled. This individuality and uniqueness is a thread that weaves through the whole Stella Luna canvas, and is the soul of the collection.”

Clearly, this series veers away from a completely literal take on MJ’s style, but it is rather Stella Luna’s own interpretation of the persona that is the King of Pop. Of Stella Luna’s trademark functionality, craftsmanship and unique aesthetic, Chi says: “The Stella Luna vision and belief in beauty is what binds the collection and is embedded in the DNA of every style.”

For this series, “contrast is a key feature,” says Chi. A tougher aesthetic is “mixed with couture-like beauty” done in a palette of bold reds and blues, Michael Jackson’s signature colors early in his career. To shed some light on the eclectic juxtaposition that he says defines this collection, Chi elaborates on the design of each pair. “Each story reveals a multi-layered personality,” such as “a full-bodied ankle boot with open multi-zipper detailing paired with a subtle but sexy zip detail peep toe, or a military buttoned platform peep toe with multiple straps paired with a more formal but fashion-forward ballerina.”

As the series is reminiscent of that glamorous disco era, women who “exude confidence, glamour and mystique” would surely take a liking to this collection, or perhaps any woman at this day and age would.

There’s just no turning away from those sexy sky-highs, especially a pair that “transcends notions of purpose and conformity”—a pair you could wear with “skinny jeans by day or couture by night.”

Simply put, the defining characteristic of this collection is that of a superstar—“showmanship, eclecticism and individuality.” Like the great legend that Michael Jackson is, who was never afraid to make or break the rules, the “Stella Luna woman makes her own rules.”

The Stella Luna “Long Live The King” series is available at Adora, Greenbelt 5.
