Bob Mackie has passed away at the age of 87. ❤️

The legendary fashion designer was known as the “Sultan of Sequins” for the over-the-top outfits he created for stars like Cher, Diana Ross, Tina Turner and Carol Burnett.

His passing was announced by his team on Instagram: “It is with a heavy heart that we share the news that Mr. Bob Mackie passed away today. He lived his 87 years to the fullest, fulfilling his dream of being a Fashion and Costume Designer, which is all he ever wanted to do. His genius and extraordinary designs will live on forever, continuing to bring beauty into this world.”

Early last year, Bob Mackie visited the Etalk studio to speak with Traci Melchor about his documentary, ‘Bob Mackie: Naked Illusion,’ when it showed at Hot Docs in Toronto.
