If the Michael Jackson's skin disorder becomes a fashion accessory would you ever try it? Read this.
The Daily Telegraph Australia recently published an article that stated rare conditions like Michael Jackson’s or Winnie Harlow’s are the next best fashion accessory for 2015. They declared, “Today, diversity is what we’re lusting over. Fashion and beauty campaigns,
along with the runway, are finally embracing the different…”
They went on to cite celebrities that were using their unique physical attributes to succeed in the beauty world. For instance, 80-year-old fashion model Joan Didion, Conchita Wurst, the gender-bending Austrian singer, and size-24 model Tess Munster. The same publication said Winnie Harlow having Michael Jackson’s unique skin condition was truly the “game changer” as far as using your unique physical attributes as a trendy fashion accessory in 2015.
Winnie Harlow got started with her modeling career when she appeared on the 21st cycle of America’s Top Model and, like Michael Jackson, has not always had
such a positive reception about her vitiligo. On her website, Winnie “Chantelle” Harlow says, “Chantelle, who was diagnosed at age 4 with vitiligo, the skin
condition that was made infamous by Michael Jackson, spent her youth bullied and tormented for her differences.”

Winnie Harlow’s career officially took off a year before her skin condition was declared as the official fashion accessory trend of 2015. In 2014, Winnie Harlow was hired specifically for her Michael Jackson-esque complexion. The fashion designer label, Desigual , has continued since that time to use Winnie Harlow as a model for their runway and online campaigns. Instead of using skin bleaching or foundation to cover up the contrasting skin tone patterns that vitiligo is known for, Desigual has Winnie Harlow display her skin condition to the fullest in person, on film, or in videos. The Michael Jackson vitiligo look that Desigual has been promoting for several seasons is an essential part of the “Say Something Nice” campaign.

It seems that no matter where Winnie Harlow’s vitiligo is discussed these days it is always in a positive way — unlike the way the public treated Michael Jackson’s vitiligo. If Michael Jackson was still alive, he might have liked the Instagram photo that Winnie Harlow posted about herself on March 11 that said, “She proves that being different is not only beautiful, it gives you personality, makes you more special and therefore even more attractive.”-Source: Inquistr
Well, i'm shocked to know Michael Jackson had vitiligo and never bleached his skin. Do you believe this?
