Turns out, the iconic piece of pop culture was sourced from the professional vintage dealer Timeless Vixen—a celebrity favorite that Sabrina Carpenter and Kylie Jenner also use for their extremely rare red carpet pulls. “When Keke’s styling team reached out looking for something special by Bob Mackie, this piece immediately came to mind,” says Lauren Lepire, owner of Timeless Vixen. “I’ve always adored his work, and with his recent passing, it’s especially meaningful to see Keke bring such an iconic design back into the spotlight.”
Fashion lost Mackie back in September, and the late designer—known for his impeccable, expressive glitz—was responsible for dressing everyone from Cher to Carol Burnett. On Palmer, his signature glamorous aesthetic shone just as brightly and served as proof that a classic Bob Mackie will never go out of style—and, in fact, only gets more and more in-demand.
