Michael Jackson would have turned 60 on August 29. To mark his birthday, Hugo Boss has released the Boss x Michael Jackson capsule collection, which includes three T-shirts and a suit.
It's not just any suit, though. The white pants and blazer are inspired by the suit Jackson wore on the cover of his game-changing album, Thriller.
The new version is limited to 100 pieces globally, each one individually numbered.

The T-shirts, meanwhile, are unisex and feature artwork that best represents the King of Pop (see our gallery below).

The first design is by British artist Graham Dolphin, and features the Thriller album cover with statements from Jackson fans rewritten in Dolphin's signature artistic style. The second design features an artistic rendering of Jackson and the collaboration logo on the back. The third T-shirt is illustrated with a silhouette print of one of his most famous dance poses. The Boss x Michael Jackson T-shirts are cut in a slim fit and made from washed cotton jersey.
