Cher's Fashion History of Breaking Barriers

Cher is one of the most iconic figures in modern fashion. We are overviewing the milestones in her fashion history of consistently pushing the envelope on what's accepted, what's allowed, and what is celebrated. We're of course discussing her longtime friendship and partnership with costume designer Bob Mackie, and sharing the stories behind some of her most monumental looks. From baring the first navel on national television, to outfits that defined eras! The "naked dress" at The Met Gala is 1974; her Academy Awards "revenge dress" in 1986; her Oscar-winning gown in 1988; and bonus! the insane costume on the set of a Navy battleship for her "If I Could Turn Back Time" music video.
