- The statement posted Monday on his Instagram account reported that he had died at age 87.
- He began as a sketch artist for film costume designers and later worked 11 years on The Carol Burnett Show.
- Mackie received nine Emmy Awards, three Oscar nominations and a 2019 Tony Award for The Cher Show.
- He was known for colorful, glamorous costumes and so-called nude-illusion dresses with mesh panels matching wearers’ skin tones.
When you're a costume designer, you better understand what that person does," Mackie said. "What, as a performer, what kind of timing do they have? How do they move if they're a dancer? It's all you have to think about that. You don't just send them out in a sweet little dress and hope for the best. It doesn't work that way.— In an interview with GMA3 (November 2024).
