#4885 - c. 1980's BOB MACKIE
Couture Gold and White Beaded Slightly Trained
Gown! Previously Owned by WHITNEY HOUSTON!
One of the Holy Grail Mackie
pieces!!! Top couture Bob Mackie gown previously owned by
Whitney Houston!! This gown weighs an unbelievable 7 pounds!! This
gown was not meant for the general public. This is a couture piece
with no lining. So it's sheer, but only slightly as the beads cover
most every square inch of the nude net background. The body shows
through at certain areas. Measures: 35" bust, up to 26" waist,
up to 36" hips, 60" long from shoulder to hem in front, 63" long in
back. Excellent condition. If there are any beads missing, you
will have to spend hours searching. Sharon Stone's Mackie beaded
gown from "Casino" sold at auction for $13,200. And the
original cost of this piece new would have easily been $15,000+.
These are the Mackies that will end up in museums... not the newer
pieces that are just "pretty gowns". Here's your chance to own the
best of the best from Hollywood's fashion icon and masterful
designer!
