Michael recieved an award for fashion???

In Oct. 2009, afew weeks before the opening of 'This is it' Marlon accepted an award in N.Y. on behalf of MJ. What was this? Some kind of fashion award??? I knew MJ was full of fashion & style - but I didn't know that MJ lent a hand to designers on the catwalk.

As the eldest brother and former member of the Jackson 5, Marlon came out to accept the Avant-Garde award in memory of his beloved brother, Michael Jackson.

No, MJ recieved the award because of his style and influence in the fashion world - people take inspiration from the clothes he wore. He didn't get the award because he actually designed/helped design their clothes.

The eldest brother? What happened to Jackie, or for that matter, Tito and Jermaine? Maybe the writer meant to say the "older" brother of Michael.:scratch:

If that was an award for fashion. Great.
Michael has great sense of style. Military, Sequins,etc. He was a trend starter (eg. 1982's red leather jacket)
