A highly coveted and totally timeless Bob Mackie pale blush-pink silk beaded hourglass gown dating back to the early 1990's. Such a rare color! Bob Mackie began his career as a Hollywood costuming sketch artist, working for both Edith Head and Jean Louis. While working with designer Ray Aghayan, Mackie soon began creating evening clothing for the divas who would make him a household name- most notably Carol Burnett, Raquel Welch, Diana Ross and Cher. These Bob Mackie gowns are rare, as they were not mass produced and were incredibly expensive at the time. This dream dress is a perfect example of his genius. It is of the highest quality silk; the bodice full of bugle beads, shimmering sequins and perfectly worked in sparkling crystals. The bodice is a low plunge sculpted sweetheart that has full built-in corset boning to help keep everything in place. I love the flattering hourglass nipped basque waist with draped high-slit silhouette which has such fantastic movement. I totally see this look walking down the red carpet or at the most glamorous affair. The pictures say it all!
