On the 16:09:12, arguably the most
famous milliner in the World, Philip Treacy made his first appearance in 12 years in The Royal Court of Justice at London Fashion week 2012.
For his spring summer collection for 2013, he paid tribute to the late King of pop Michael
Jackson, and the style and power of African women.

According to the 'Evening Standard' Treacy is quoted as saying “The show was homage to the Africanwoman and their sensibility to dress up.”
On show were 37 outfits
owned by the late ‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson. These were worn with Jackson inspired, Treacy designed hats,by cast of 25 models all
of various Black/Afro backgrounds.
The move has also restarted the question of
why “minorities” are hardly represented in the fashion industry.
Nice move Philip Treacy!
