The pop legend is set to auction off over 800 items, including her outfits and costumes from music videos and tours, on May 21.
The auction will be held live at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York and online at the auction house Julien's Live.
Among the items are instantly recognizable outfits Jackson wore on her Rhythm Nation tour, bedazzled microphones, and CDs commemorating the platinum status of her blockbuster albums.
Among the looks made available to fans is a black suede vest with silver buttons, which she famously wore in her That's The Way Love Goes music video.
In the original video, she paired the top with a white Native American–inspired collar while baring her toned tummy.
Another standout of the collection is a white long-sleeve puckered shirt that Janet wore in her classic Scream music video.
The song was the lead single from Michael's 1995 album HIStory: Past, Present, and Future, Book I.
Its stylish black-and-white music video was one of the most expensive music videos ever made, with a $7 million price tag.
