When news broke that Michael Jackson had died of cardiac arrest aged just 50, the world fell into a state of shock. Thousands of fans travelled to his Neverland home to pay respects and his funeral was attended by guests the world over. There's no doubting that Michael Jackson had a massive impact on the lives of millions of people - which is why so many people are choosing to celebrate the music and life he brought to the world of pop by holding Jackson-themed parties.
Whether it's something simple like a get together to listen to and remember some of Jackson's greatest hits or a giant fancy dress party dedicated to the memory of the late king of pop, there are myriad reasons to look back and celebrate the joy that Michael Jackson brought to the world. His music surpassed boundaries of language, race or religion and was a staple in many 80s and 90s upbringings that saw thousands of young adults grow up alongside his greatest tunes.
All over the world, Jackson fans are coming together to pay respects to the musical magician, and plenty are doing so in style by adding an element of one of Michael's biggest loves - costumes - to their celebrations. Fancy dress parties are occurring the world over with a distinct Jackson theme that are inviting attendees to don significant Jackson-related costumes, from the notorious 'Bad' outfit to imaginative 'Thriller' zombie costumes that can help bring the singer's memory to the forefront of any celebration.
The great thing about Michael Jackson's vibrant career is that he showed off so many wild and imaginative outfits, there's a huge choice of what era in his career you want to represent. There's the shocking red leather of his 'Thriller' days, the dusty black jacket with those famous three-quarter sleeves from his 'Bad' days and plenty of different hairstyles to top them all off.
So whether you're 'Beat It' or 'Billie Jean' Michael, you'll be sure to find a distinctive outfit that'll be instantly recognisable. And, if it turns out you're not the biggest fan of dressing up, you can still show your respects by pulling on a glove and showing off one of Jackson's trademark symbols effortlessly.
There's no kind of flattery like imitation and it's very likely that, had Jackson been alive to see how the world reacted to his death, he would've been the first to join in the partying - so dig out that Michael Jackson tribute costume and start practicing your moonwalk.
