Before Madonna oozed Old Hollywood glamour at the Oscars and Tina Turner wowed in a stringy, feathered number on tour, Bob Mackie worked the pen and paper. The recipient of CFDA’s 2019 Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award views fashion illustration as integral to the design process. Expressive sketches of muses like Diana Ross, Farah Fawcett, and, of course, Cher showcase how some of Mackie’s most iconic designs have their start – before the feathers, beading, and all kinds of embellishments bring them to life. Check out some of the incredible works of art from the visionary designer.
