Hey there, fashion lovers! Get ready for a night that's going to be nothing short of iconic. The 2019 Met Gala is set to honor one of the most incredible partnerships in the world of fashion: Cher and her legendary designer, Bob Mackie. This event will showcase a jaw-dropping collection of costumes that Bob created for Cher over the decades. It's not just about fashion; it's about celebrating a relationship that has redefined style and performance.

So, what makes this collaboration so special? For starters, Cher and Bob Mackie have been working together since 1967, creating a bond that's as strong as it is creative. On May 6, 2019, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City will host the Met Gala, and the spotlight will be on this unstoppable duo. Bob Mackie has lent The Costume Institute a selection of original ensembles, including some stunning outfits from Cher's long-running Las Vegas residency. These pieces will be part of the "Camp: Notes on Fashion" exhibit, and trust me, you don't want to miss it.

Cher and Bob Mackie's partnership is a story that's been in the making for over five decades. In a heartfelt interview with Closer Weekly in mid-February, the Tony-nominated designer expressed his immense pride in being a part of this fashion revolution. Bob Mackie, now in his 70s, reminisced about the early days when Cher was just starting out. "She was so young back then, she didn't realize how incredible she could look," he said with a chuckle. But Cher was always determined to stand out. "She'd say, 'I don't want to look like a housewife in an evening gown.' And honestly, we never had to worry about that!" Bob joked, highlighting Cher's fearless approach to fashion.
