    By the time Diana was hosting Midnight Special, she was a huge star.
    The biggest star.
    She wasn't wearing anything she didn't want to wear.

    I cant believe i never noticed the the "New" Supremes wore the original Supremes gowns. I was lucky enough a few yrs ago to see some of those gowns up close and personal ,when Mary Wilson was touring the country with them.

    I’ve always been curious about the watermelon gown and why Mackie would do that. But, as you said, to Diana’s credit, she dazzled in the gown and showed she was the star of the show - no matter what she was wearing.

    Great analysis. I think there are very few French people who know Mackie and Halston. I think costumery and fashion design are very things with very different goals. Mackie and Halston took very different approaches to construction, Halston being an innovator of cut and structure.
    As I am not a POC, I don’t think it’s up to me to comment on whether someone should perceive the watermelon dress as racially charged, but I do think that fruit motifs in general are common in fashion. Bill Blass created a beautiful sequined watermelon jacket in the 1980s.

    Being a HUGE Bob Mackie fan myself,the one piece that i would just love to see up close and personal, was the nude gown Cher wore to the Met Gala and on the cover of Times magazine. Would love to see the inside of that gown,its truly amazing,have u talked about that gown in your other videos? Ive just discovered your channel. I heard Cher once say she keeps it in a shoebox on a shelf in her closet, i love that image.

    • @benhamouphilippe
      @benhamouphilippe  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I completely agree with you on that! I really would love to see the dress up close. I am fascinated by the way the illusion veil is layered up to 12 times with the patterns getting smaller and smaller to create the illusion of nudity. The Mitzi Gaynor silver fringe gown is also a spectacular piece.

    • @JohnSmith-qj6bj
      @JohnSmith-qj6bj หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ah,thank u for that information, I never would have thought of it being layered,all these yrs I wonder how it was possible
      That man is a marvel. Thanks again for sharing

    Bravissimo!!! Mackie and Mugler, I would say the designers that best complimented her style. Just as Herb Ritts, Harry Langford and Victor Skrebeneski were the photographers That immortalized those gowns.
    Interesting being a person of color, the thought of the watermelon dress being bigoted, just didn’t stick. I never understood why black people were/are ridiculed for fried chicken and watermelon. Both foods are available and popular in a wide array of countries. BUT as you were setting up the clip, i automatically knew it was the watermelon dress.
    Jackie and Ross were nominated for Costume Design Emmys in her television specials from “T.C.B.” To “Red Hot Rhythm and Blues”.
    The peacock blue gown looks almost aubergine in that photo. I have it framed from a photo book.
    (I keep hoping to find/meet a younger maybe newer fan to pass on my vast collection……most of my friends (past/present) already have their own collection). I have two storage rooms of memorabilia that when I become an expat will probably be left behind (sigh). Thanks to technology you can digitally store so much that the memories will live on.

    OMG, I think they made a Diana Ross Barbie, wearing a Mackie dress... I think they did it with a Cher Barbie as well.
    We are all so amazed that Diana is still active.
    My favorite designer is/was Claude Montana... Whatever happened to those vanguard designers of the 70s and 80s?

      Mackie did several dolls for Mattel including four different Cher dolls and a Diana Ross doll. He also designed ALL the outfits for the original Cher doll made by Mego in the 70s
