Michael Jackson's glitzy concert getups are some of the most recognizable in the history of the music industry: The sparkly gloves, the black loafers, the tipped fedoras, the statement jackets. But it turns out he might have owed part of his iconic image to Roberto Cavalli. However, it sounds like their relationship had a few bumps...

Dick Clark (aka "America's Oldest Teenager") passed away yesterday at the age of 82. As the host of American Bandstand and the perennial harbinger of New Year's Eve, Dick Clark was there for a lot of pop culture moments. While so many people today are remembering American Bandstand for the musical acts and as a nostalgic reminder of a really transitional time in America, we're looking at it as an amazing lesson in fashion history. From that wasp-waisted 1950's silhouette that ruled at the show's inception to the bell bottoms (which plague us still) of the show's 1970s heyday, take a peek at the fashion cycle (seriously, it all comes back) on the American Bandstand stage. A picture of Cher in 1982 wearing leopard print pants? Pretty sure we see that outfit 10 times a day near our office here in Soho. Click through for to see Dick Clark through the years and some of the musical acts that defined American Bandstand--and, of course, what they wore.

The Olsens Gave Shoe Fittings in Central America: Mary-Kate and Ashley, who recently collaborated with Toms on a range of cashmere shoes, just took a trip with founder Blake Mycoskie to Honduras to personally give out shoes to needy kids in three different communities. Good for them! {People Style Watch} Jane Pratt won't wake up for less than $15,000: At least, she won't speak for less than that. The Observer says that is the amount they were quoted by Pratt's representation when they asked if the former Sassy editor would be available to "deliver a brief address to a small group a month from now, in New York." {New York Observer} "Billie Jean" named most stylish video: GQ ranked the 30 most stylish music videos of all time. Michael Jackson took both the #30 and #1 spots for "Thriller" and "Billy Jean," respectively. Though his red leather jacket in "Thriller" may be more memorable, Jackson's leather suit (with cropped pants), bowtie, pink socks and oxfords were pretty inspiring. {GQ} Robyn Lawley's Vogue coup: Robyn Lawley, who covered Italian Vogue's recent plus-size issue, now stars in Australian Vogue's first-ever plus-size spread. {Frockwriter}

MJ's Thriller Jacket Is Up For Auction: The iconic red leather jacket will be sold on June 25 at an L.A. auction and is estimated to be worth over $200,000. Other music memorabilia will also be up for sale, including one of Jackson's single gloves, a jacket from Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run tour and Ringo Starr's wool cape from the movie Help. {L.A.

It reportedly has one over-the-shoulder strap, embroidery at the bottom and a "little fishtail hem". Lauren will accent it with Cartier jewels and a "very long antique lace veil." I'm honestly more excited for this than I was for Kate Middleton's. {NY Daily News}

Last night, Glamour magazine held their 20th annual Women of the Year Awards. The amount of lady power that packed Carnegie Hall was staggering and inspiring. Honorees included Queen Rania of Jordan, Cher, Julia Roberts, Constance McMillen (who took a stand when she couldn't take her girlfriend to prom) and Donatella Versace. Oprah, Kate Hudson, Katie Couric, Janet Jackson, Hilary Swank and Diane Sawyer were among the presenters. Tavi Gevinson was there too, recognized as one of the mag's 20 young women who are already changing the world. Sequined and spectacled in clear frames, Tavi looked a bit sheepish when Chelsea Clinton described her as blogging her way to become one of the most well known fashion writers out there. One of the most compelling moments of the evening (and there were many), came when Janet Jackson presented Donatella Versace with her award. Through tears (and in a black Atelier Versace gown), Janet explained that when her brother died she called Donatella because she knew she would understand. "We both lost brothers," Janet said, "we share a very deep bond." Having her family wear Versace to Michael's funeral "meant we were dressed in love," Janet said.

Ever lusted over MJ's red leather thriller jacket? Now it can be yours. The remaining members of the Jackson 5 have launched a collection of tees and leather jackets called J5, which will be in stores like Kitson and Urban Outfitters and online at RevolveClothing.com and 80spurple.com early February, WWD is reporting. The collection, which is officially licensed through the Jackson estate, will feature 24 concert-style tees and tanks with iconic imagery of the Jackson 5 from the '60s through the '80s. More notably for fans of the King of Pop, and though it has less to do with the Jackson 5, the collection will include exact replicas of the "Thriller" and "Beat It" leather jackets. A press release for the line boasts that the jackets are "produced, down to the detail, in the design of the original jackets." Rafi Weisman, the original designer of the jackets, was even consulted to create the replicas for the line. The "Thriller" jacket comes in soft red leather with black detailing and and "V" design on the back and the "Beat It" jacket comes in red or white leather with chainmail detailing and diagonal zipper designs. The catch? While the tees will run from between $45-$55, the jackets will cost around $900. Here's a look at the collection. MJ fans, will you bite?
