DescriptionThis elegant three-quarter-length black leather coat, featuring a faux fur-covered collar, zippered inside pocket, and multiple exterior pockets, was worn by George Michael during his unforgettable performance of “Jesus to a Child” at the 1994 MTV Europe Music Awards in Berlin. The coat bears the John Richmond Man label and retains its original “Out of the Closet” sales tag, signifying its provenance from Elton John’s famous charity wardrobe sale. The 1994 MTV Europe Music Awards marked a pivotal moment in George Michael’s career, as his performance introduced the world to “Jesus to a Child”, a deeply personal ballad that would later become a global hit. The event itself was a celebration of international music culture, broadcast to millions and remembered for its bold fashion and iconic performances.
