Bob Mackie
One of a handful of fashion designers for the stars to actually be known to a wide sector of the public, Mackie has created gowns which have caressed, enhanced and glamorously exaggerated the female form in particular since the 1960s. After studies in art school, Mackie worked as a sketch artist for the legendary Jean Louis and as a member of the equally famed Edith Head design team. He then struck out on his own, attracting attention for his work on TV adaptations of "Brigadoon" and "Alice Through the Looking Glass" (both 1966), winning his first of many Emmys for the latter.
