Las Vegas has always been a stage for spectacle, but on August 24, 2025, the spotlight burned brighter with “The Man in the Mirror”—a Michael Jackson tribute staged at the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino. More than a mere performance, it was a celebration of artistry, rhythm & vision. Smart SwimSuits was honored to be part of the event, presenting a collection inspired by the King of Pop himself.
From Music To Motif
Michael Jackson’s style has always been inseparable from his music. The military jackets, the sequined gloves, the sharp silhouettes—every look was as iconic as the songs they accompanied. For Smart SwimSuits, his visual language became a canvas for reinvention.
The collection translated Jackson’s unmistakable aesthetic into swimwear:
-
Regal Lines — Strong shoulders & structured cuts echoing his military-inspired jackets.
-
Illuminated Details — Sequined textures & shimmering fabrics designed to catch the light, much like his legendary stage costumes.
-
Bold Monochromes — Striking blacks, whites & metallics paying homage to his timeless color palette.
-
Movement in Fabric — Flowing robes & sleeves engineered to magnify motion, mirroring Jackson’s choreography where every gesture carried weight.
These elements fused into garments that were not merely worn but performed; swimwear that carried rhythm & presence.
The Creative Force Behind The Collection
The vision of this tribute was made possible through collaboration. Natalia Kolchugina, a talented designer from Spain, served as one of the main creative forces shaping the collection’s aesthetics. Her artistry gave Jackson’s iconic looks a new life in sustainable swimwear.
Guiding the overall direction was Sasha Royce, CEO of Smart SwimSuits, whose vision as a leader & innovator framed the project from its earliest concept to its final presentation. Supporting the creative process was Anastasia Novi from France, whose insight & dedication to production played a vital role in bringing the show to life.
Together with the core Smart SwimSuits team, this collaboration transformed a tribute into a living, breathing collection that united music, fashion & sustainability.
Fashion As Performance
Smart SwimSuits has always insisted that clothing is more than fabric—it is experience, expression &, in this case, tribute. The show at the Westgate reminded audiences that Michael Jackson’s legacy was not only sound but sight. His looks challenged conventions, blurred genres & amplified his artistry.
In honoring him, the brand sought to channel that same daring spirit. Each piece of the collection carried a fragment of his energy: the precision of his lines, the sparkle of his sequins, the confidence of his stage presence. Swimwear, often confined to leisure, became a medium of tribute—both sensual & spectacular, both wearable & theatrical.
A Tribute Beyond Music
"Michael Jackson was more than an artist. He was a visionary who understood how style could amplify a message," said Sasha Royce, CEO of Smart SwimSuits. “For us, translating his legacy into sustainable fashion was a way to honor his genius while staying true to our mission: fashion that protects, empowers and inspires.”
As with all Smart SwimSuits collections, sustainability was the foundation. The fabrics were recyclable, tan-through & SPF-protective, ensuring that the tribute did not come at the cost of the planet. This balance between spectacle & responsibility mirrored Jackson’s own paradox—an artist of extravagance who carried messages of unity, healing & global consciousness.
Legacy In Motion
The Michael Jackson Tribute Show was more than nostalgia – it was a reminder of how art transcends generations. By presenting a collection inspired by his iconic looks, Smart SwimSuits contributed to that continuum—fashion as a language of memory, sustainability as a language of future.
For the audience in Las Vegas, the night was a celebration of sound, light & movement. For Smart SwimSuits, it was also a declaration: that even in swimwear, style can honor legacy, design can embody rhythm & sustainability can shine as brightly as sequins under stage lights.
