DESCRIPTION:Nom du lots : Two Bob Mackie Dresses\n\n\n\nBob Mackie (1940-pr
 esent) is\, without a doubt\, the king of glitz. As a young child\, he was
  enchanted by Old Hollywood glamour. The influence of stars such as Lana T
 urner and Betty Grable stuck with him creatively and physically–– he h
 as a scar on his chin from falling down the stairs in platform heels while
  dressed up as Carmen Miranda at age 5. At 21\, Mackie worked for costumer
  Jean Louis\, where he designed the dress Marilyn Monroe wore to sing “H
 appy Birthday\, Mr. President” to John F. Kennedy. Soon after\, he start
 ed working at Paramount Studios under the legendary Edith Head. In 1963\, 
 Mackie started in the costume department of The Judy Garland Show. It was 
 there he met designer Ray Aghayan\, his lifelong creative and romantic par
 tner. He designed every costume for The Carol Burnett Show for its entire 
 run from 1967 to 1978\, averaging more than 60 looks per week for a whoppi
 ng grand total of 17\,000. Throughout the 70’s and 80’s\, he outfitted
  many Las Vegas showgirls in extravagant feathery creations. Mackie has de
 signed countless iconic looks\, including nearly every Cher costume (such 
 as her “revenge dress” from the 1986 Oscars and the “naked” dress)
 \, Diana Ross as Billie Holiday\, Sharon Stone in Casino\, Elton John as D
 onald Duck\, Tina Turner\, Ann-Margaret\, Mitzi Gaynor\, Ethel Merman\, Ru
 Paul\, Liza Minnelli\, Whoopi Goldberg\, Barbra Streisand–– the list i
 s truly endless. Another favored client is Barbie\, for whom Mackie has de
 signed many spectacular gowns in miniature. Over the years\, he has won 9 
 Emmy Awards\, been nominated for 3 Academy Awards\, and most recently a To
 ny Award. Beyond stage and screen\, he has also designed numerous runway c
 ollections. Throughout this prodigious career\, the "sultan of sequins” 
 has maintained his unmistakable design identity while continuing to evolve
 \, always onto an exciting venture.\n\nTHE FIRST\nLong sleeve dress in bla
