RIP Bob Mackie, who designed this perfect outfit for Carol Burnett's memorable turn as Scarlett O'Hara on her weekly comedy hour. (Confesson: I have the Barbie Doll limited edition of Burnett in this outfit.)

Photo shows Carol Burnett and Harvey Korman in a "Gone With the Wind" skit on her weekly TV show. Burnett is in an outfit made by the legendary designer Bob Mackie. Hilariously, it features old green curtains and drapery accessories, a hideous green and gold headdress, and, best of all, curtain rods jutting out from her shoulders. Making a mockery of "Gone With the Wind"? Yes, please!
