I wore a Bob mackie sweater to church today. A254141. It got a couple compliments during coffee hour and one friend who knows i shop QVC as she also does - asked me if it was a Bob Mackie sweater. She said he is always so cheerful and pleasant to watch and his designs always make me feel lighthearted. I have to totally agree with her. I always loved his designs on Carol Burnett show and way back when he did designs for Sony and Cher's TV show. Of course , he can be outrageous with Cher and she just pulls anything off perfectly.

I have a couple of Bob's item and the quality is great. I love Bob's attitude toward fashion which is have fun and don't worry about what the so called experts say.

It's always a victory for me when I remember why I entered a room.

I agree - so many take things way too seriously.

I used to own the Bob Mackie fleece jacket that is dark green and has fall colored leaves embroidered all down one sleeve and across the front. When we were moving to Fl I had a bunch of winter clothes I was giving away and several of my friends said they wanted that jacket. We had to have them pull straws for it.

I love Bob, but think he is better as a costume designer.

Agree. Master at costumes. I do own one of his tops, but the rest still look "printed on" to me. He is a doll and I enjoy watching him.

I think he is the epitome of gentleman.

My mother had a number of his less busy QVC tops and solid bottoms. They were well made for the price.

i used to have a red cotton long sleeve blouse of his that had a ribbon design embroidered around the collar in black and white - it was so pretty. I wore that blouse so much I actually wore it out.And now that i don't have it anymore I do miss it.

His clothing is very good quality.

There's one top of his that I see fairly often on women, especially down in AZ. It's striped and has a smallish flower on one shoulder. I enjoy watching him.
