Bob Mackie, Who Dressed Carol Burnett and Cher Flamboyantly, Excelled at Old Hollywood Craftsmanship (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 2001, when the fashion designer Bob Mackie was sixty-two years old, he attended the C.F.D.A. Fashion Awards in New York—a swanky annual ceremony put on by the Council of Fashion Designers of America which is more or less the Oscars of the schmatta business—to receive an honorary prize for “fashion exuberance.” No other designer had won this award before, and no other designer has won it since. It was an accolade invented for Mackie, who died on Monday, of pneumonia, at the age of eighty-seven
Paula Cole Doesnât Want to Wait (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The 1998 Grammy Awards should have been a triumphant night for the singer-songwriter Paula Cole. She was nominated for seven awards for her second album, âThis Fire,â including Producer of the Year, Non-Classical, an honor that has yet to go to a woman (a factoid that she calls âdeeply fuckedâ). That night, Cole, then twenty-nine, performed âWhere Have All the Cowboys Gone?â and won Best New Artist, beating out Hanson, Erykah Badu, Fiona Apple, and Puff Daddy. Yet all anyone could ta
The Sartorial Riches of the Silent-Film Era (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In today’s world of rumbling, thunderous Dolby surround sound, the concept of silent cinema can feel very distant. Sure, you can catch a replay of “Metropolis” or “City Lights” every now and then at Film Forum—and you can listen to Karina Longworth’s excellent podcast about Hollywood history, “You Must Remember This”—but there are notably few other opportunities to dip one’s toes into the era before talkies arrived. As such, “Goddesses in the Machine: Fashion in American Silent Film,” a new exhi
Meg Stalter Commits to the Bit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When the play “Oh, Mary!” opened on Broadway, in the summer of 2024, it was in no way guaranteed to be a hit. A kooky comic farce that originally débuted downtown, at the Lucille Lortel Theatre, the show had an outlandish premise: What if Mary Todd Lincoln was a delusional drunk who wanted more than anything to sing cabaret, much to the dismay of her President husband, who just so happened to be secretly gay? Its director, Sam Pinkleton, had never before helmed a Broadway production, and its wri
How Caro Claire Burke Wrote the Biggest Book of the Year (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I first heard about “Yesteryear,” this summer’s blockbuster novel about a trad-wife influencer who wakes up in a nightmarish alternate reality, long before it had even been published. In 2024, the book deal alone made headlines as the stuff of fairy tales: Caro Claire Burke, a first-time author who was then just thirty years old, sold “Yesteryear” to Knopf in a twelve-way auction for a reported “low seven figures.” Amazon MGM Studios quickly snapped up the film rights, for a reported sum between
